2.0 out of 5 stars
Very Disappointing, January 11, 2007
This review is from: Open-source Wireless-g 54 Mbps Wireless Router (Personal Computers)
I was excited by the name of this router : "Open-Source Wireless Router".
Unfortunately soon after plugging it in I was sorely disappointed. The initial setup does NOT WORK WITH FIREFOX - it REQUIRES MICROSOFT INTERNET EXPLORER.
How's that for an "Open-source router"??
Eventually, after getting it working (to repeat, you MUST use MSIE for the intial setup), you can, as far as I can tell, capably administer it with Firefox.
On to the next problem - no printed manual. How much would it cost to throw in a short manual, Linksys?
No documentation explaining how to hack the supposedly "open-source" firmware. No links provided either. There is a "Router Upgrade" link which lets you upgrade the firmware, at least. I can see I'll be doing that very shortly - hopefully with non-Linksys firmware.
