A few months ago, we had the opportunity to review the Linksys E4200 Wireless Router. The Linksys replaced an old router that consistently dropped connections and needed to be power cycled on an almost weekly basis. Since switching to the Linksys E4200, my wireless connection has been rock solid. Not only does it provide blazing fast wireless, but I love the convenience of guest accounts, the speed test, and the user friendly interface. Please take a moment to read our full review of the Linksys E4200. Here’s a quick excerpt:
Wireless internet wasn’t always a “given” here. Friends would come over for LAN parties (hey – I’ve said I was a nerd!) and we would literally have to power cycle the router every time someone needed to connect to the internet. That meant that we’d all have to lose internet, and then one by one, reconnect. It was a pain. Power cycling the router became a regular things. Not fun.
Ever since we upgraded to the new Linksys E4200 Maximum Performance Dual-Band N Router, I haven’t had to power cycle the router once. The internet connection hasn’t been lost and friends can get internet access just by connecting to my router’s guest user account. Not only that, but now I can get internet access in every single room of the house – from upstairs to even the closet in the back room furthest from the office. How’s that for “internet accessible”?
