It's a good deal  as a  wireless second router option
I bougth it as a second router to add a wireless conection to my small office. first of all, the range is not much so if you are going to use it in a place with walls or doors buy other more powerfull option. <br /> <br />I tryed to make it work with my old wired router, but it didn't work properly, I decided to use it as a wireless switch. <br />As a second router you need to configurate it. first you need to determinate the adress of your primary router for example: 192.168.1.1 (it's the default in the lynksys). open your brouser an conect the second router to your pc, (not yet to the network), then type the adress above it's going to ask you a password, (ussers name empty and the password is \\"admin\\"), change de options in the LAN IP adress box to 192.168.1.2, then go to the DHCP options on your rigth and desable de DHCP box, then add the Starting Ip adress:192.168.1.1 as that's going to be the main router adress, then fill the DNS 1 box with the same 192.168.1.1 adress and you are done. <br />apply all the changes and then conect the router in a empty slot of your main router, switch or hub, and make shure to connect this cable to the number one slot of the new secondary router because you are going to use it as a hub not as a router. <br />you are goin to be able to navegate and see the other PC's conected to the old network. <br /> <br />it work's great but needs a smart simple configuration, the card do not work properly in W98. using XP not problem, I am Giving it 3 stars for the short range. <br /> <br />
