Product Description
Includes: power adapter, Ethernet network cable, user guide on CD-ROM, setup CD-ROM, & more. With the Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router with SRX at the center of your home or office network, you can share a high-speed Internet connection, files, printers, and multi-player games with flexibility, speed, and security! The Wireless-G Broadband Router with SRX is really three devices in one box. First, there's the Wireless Access Point, which lets you connect Wireless-G, Wireless-B, and other performance-enhanced SRX devices to the network. There's also a built-in 4-port full-duplex 10/100 Switch to connect your wired-Ethernet devices together. Finally, the Router function ties it all together and lets your whole network share a high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection.
The Wireless-G Broadband Router with SRX combines smart antenna technology with standards-based Wireless-G (802.11g) networking. By overlaying the signals of two Wireless-G compatible radios, the "Multiple In, Multiple Out" (MIMO) technology effectively doubles the data rate. Unlike ordinary wireless networking technologies that are confused by signal reflections, MIMO actually uses these reflections to increase the range and reduce "dead spots" in the wireless coverage area. The robust signal travels farther, maintaining wireless connections up to 3 times farther than standard Wireless-G. And the farther away you are, the more advantage you get -- the higher data rate and reflection-friendly technology can yield up to 8 times more throughput than Wireless-G in some situations. The router avoids interference by dynamically switching to the clearest channel available. Even your standard Wireless-G and -B equipment will work better when communicating with SRX-enabled devices. Dimensions WHD - 6.38 x 6.38 x 1.57 11 Channels (US, Canada) / 13 Channels (Europe)
Amazon.com Product Description
Now you can enjoy wireless home-network access in those hard-to-reach rooms and--simultaneously--get faster networking and Internet performance, too. The WRT54GX Wireless-G broadband router from Linksys uses the company's advanced SRX (Speed and Range eXpansion) technology to enhance the speed and the reach of a Wireless-G (802.11g) network. The WRT54GX can provide faster wireless network throughput, reduce dead spots, and increase wireless range over standard Wireless-G networks.
The handy WRT54GX serves as an Internet-sharing router, a four-port 10/100 switch, and an SRX-enhanced Wireless-G access point all at once. Relative to standard 80 2.11g technology, a network using all SRX products can extend network reach up to three times as far and boost wireless network speed by up to eight times. (Actual throughput, speed, and range depend on a host of factors, from building materials to network traffic and distance from the router.)
The device is Wi-Fi-certified and backward compatible with 802.11b (Wireless-B), 802.11g (Wireless-G) and, of course, other Linksys SRX products. Mixed wireless environments such as networks containing SRX, Wireless-B, and Wireless-G products can operate each client at its own maximum data rate. SRX products maintain their higher speed and range, providing the throughput and quality of service to deliver applications such as VoIP (Internet telephony) and video streaming.
SRX is based on MIMO (multiple-in, multiple-out) technology, a key component in the upcoming Wireless-N (802.11n) standard. To improve range and speed, MIMO uses two radios and three antennas on a wireless router or client adapter.
To enhance data protection and privacy, the router can encode all wireless trans missions with WPA (Wireless Protection Access). Its powerful Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) firewall enhances protection to all the wired and wireless PCs against intruders and most known Internet attacks while also supporting VPN passthrough. Configuration is easy using a Web-browser-based configuration utility.
What's in the Box
Wireless-G broadband router, a setup CD-ROM with Symantec Internet Security, a u ser's guide on CD-ROM, an AC power adapter, an Ethernet network cable, a quick-i nstallation guide, and a registration card.

Wireless networks are rapidly becoming more popular and coming down in price. Since they don't require cables, you can use the devices anywhere in an office or home, even out on the patio. There's no need to roll out an Ethernet network cable to each room of a house; you can network anywhere--without wires. Outside the home, wireless networking is available in hotspots at coffee shops, businesses, and airports--great when you're on the road and need to get some work done. For convenience, wireless networking is the answer.
Which Wireless Standard Is Right for Me?
Now that you've decided to create a wireless network, the next step is to figure out which wireless standard to use.
Basically, a standard is a set of specifications for a device. All devices that follow a specific standard share operating characteristics, such as the radio frequency used and maximum data transfer speed.
For wireless networking, there are three standards to choose from at this time:

Easy setup, ugly, poor wireless.......2007-12-16
I bought this to replace a netgear product I had had for quite some time. I have not been overly impressed by the range on this thing, but most of all I found, like the netgear, that far too often, I need to do a long powercycle just to get the wireless back online!
Pros:
- very easy to set up with a lot of options
Cons:
- ugly
- power cycle required to kickstart wireless once in awhile
Standard amount of powers (4) I wish they would make these with 6.
Awesome!.......2007-12-15
I've had my system for well over a year. I used to have a Linksys all-in-one cable modem / wireless router, but it died after my cable got struck by lightning. The cable company came out and installed a new modem, so I needed the wireless router. A friend of mine raved about signal strength 100 feet outside, through the stone walls of his house, so I decided to give the SRX a try.
WOW! I honestly don't remember issues during installation. Wireless in general is a pain, but...
Where 802.11b provides 11mbp/s and g provides 54, I get 102, from anywhere in or near my house. Of course you need an SRX card in your PC to get the full benefit, but the package was absolutely well worth the money.
Excelente!.......2007-10-13
Es excelente, alcance y potencia en convinación con el PCI Adapter del mismo modelo te ofrecen 108Mbps.
Works well but a bit complicated to setup with the security feature.......2007-09-17
It took me several tries to get it to work with the encryption on. I contacted Cisco and they helped a great deal. I used their web chat and they sent me the content of the 2 conversations I had with them directly to my e-mail address. Setting up the router with the CD is horrible, my password kept being rejected. I used the IP address and my browser, took no time after that.
Good working system, but needs to reconnect often.......2007-09-04
I have had this wireless router for about a month now, and overall, it works pretty well. I have connected it to my desktop computer in the den and I get a good signal in my kitchen which is on the other side of the house. However, several times, I lose the connection and have to reconnect.
The setup was not too bad, but I did have to contact my DSL provider to get some information on the settings. For being my very first wireless router installation, it was not too bad. I would say it took me about 90 minutes to get everything set up from taking it out of the box to connecting wirelessly with the computer in the other room.
I would certainly purchase another linksys router.

Customer Reviews:
Very good quality at a very good price.......2007-08-18
Cable is very well made and the price is right. Video display is as clear as HD gets. I'm using this HDMI cable between my HDTV and Tivo HD DVR. No need to buy those overpriced Monster cables.
Fantastic Cable - Same One Sold on Apple Store.......2007-08-16
Yes, this cable is the same cable that is sold on the Apple store on www.apple.com . Personally, I trust that Apple wouldn't sell an HDMI cable that wasn't unreliable, so I went with this cable on that basis. I ordered it on Amazon, of course, to avoid any payments of tax or shipping.
I made the right choice. The price is in the middle; it's between those $2 HDMI cables and those $80 HDMI cables. The price gives me comfort that I'm not being ripped off but that I'm not paying for scrap metal, either. I have it connecting my ps3 to my sony 50 inch a2020 1080p HDTV. Displays the full signal with no dropout issues.
Buy this cable. It just works.
