1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing in multiple aspects., November 16, 2009

I purchased a pair of the EnGenius EOC-2610's in order to wirelessly connect two buildings on our farm separated by 500 meters so both buildings could use the the same DSL access to the internet. The first unit installed easily as a workable "access point" to the LAN containing the DSL/router despite very poor documentation of how to do it and no schematics. This worked for two days and then the devices's electronics failed before I even had a chance to set up the 2nd unit of the pair for a stronger signal in the second building. I ended up replacing the first unit with the second as a simple "access point" in the main building so at least I could communicate with the second building's wireless enabled laptop.
I sent a detailed concise email to EnGenius explaining my troubles in simple non-accusatory language. They never responded. The device could not be returned to the vendor without the approval of Engenius so I never was able to get my money back before the 30 day grace period expired.
In summary my device failure rate was 50% in the first two days of operation, the instructions for a motivated non-network engineer are inadequate, and the support was nonexistent. I myself would not buy from EnGenius again.

1.0 out of 5 stars EnGenius EOC-2610 is a poor product, July 30, 2011

In November, 2009, I purchased the EnGenius EOC-2610. By March, 2010, the device stopped working. The device would receive power, but I could not access the device. The cables and settings were tested and found to be in working order. I spoke to an Engenius technician and sent the device in for repair. Engenius indicated that the LAN port went bad on the EOC-2610 device and they had to replace it. Engenius did repair the device at no cost to me except for shipping the device to them for repair. By May, 2011, the device broke again same circumstance as before. I contacted Engenius and they indicated that since the device was out of warranty the only thing I could do is purchase a new device which they would give me $20 discount. Thanks you very much EnGenius. Please note: During the period from March 2010 to April 2011, I had used the device very little and the device was packed away carefully in storage. When I started using it again in April, 2011 it worked great until about June, 2011 when it broke again. I explained to Engenius I would never buy an their product again for the following reasons: 1) I didn't have the device 6 months before it initially broke, 2) when it broke, Engenius should have paid all costs associated with their defective product, and 3) the repaired device lasted a bit over a year before it broke again and that's even without much use during that time, 4) this wifi product should last longer without breaking down at all. I was very disappointed with Engenius and their product and would not recommend this product to anyone interested in a wifi system.

The instructions for this product are VERY vague to say the least and have discrepancies between the written instructions and the PDF file on the CD that comes with it! You won't get any decent help from the Techs of Engenius because they are just as vague as the instructions and treat you like an idiot. I have had this product since Christmas and it is still NOT UP AND RUNNING. I bought 2 of them in hopes to build a wireless network. I am out $150 if I can't find help from the Techs at Engenius otherwise I guess I can consider myself screwed! I have had schooling for networking so I am not stupid! But this product is incredibly hard to figure out the correct settings unless you can read between the lines. GOOD LUCK if you buy this is all I have to say!
