Reviews around tech support (5.00 of 5)

  • You have to pay for tech support if you bought their junk more than 90 days ago
  • A call to Linksys tech support revealed the "router" was not really a router out of the box.
  • The tech support woman said she would call back and didn't.
  • This is where they tried to get me to pay to extend my tech support warranty
  • I then called Cisco's tech support and spent several hours going in circles

Reviews around customer support (4.42 of 5)

  • I started to have great concern for their customer support after this
  • cisco customer support was completely unhelpful and refused to honor the warranty.never buying anything made by cisco again!
  • Then she suggested I call customer support (over the phone) after only trying one thing with me
  • I'm giving this unit 3 stars, and being generous because it worked fine for a while, and customer support was good.
  • The router was easy to connect, provides different levels of security, guest access, and, surprisingly, has good customer support.

Reviews around signal (4.03 of 5)

  • Works perfectly, the signal is much stronger that I thought
  • Works perfectly, the signal is much stronger that I thought
  • After spending about a half hour on the phone with support, the tech guy, clearly just as frustrated with me as I with him, asked me, "What is the power light doing?"
  • We lived in a 2,000 sq ft 2-story townhouse and never had a problem with a weak signal
  • I returned this and purchased a Buffalo N150 that works perfectly with excellent signal all over my house

Reviews around price (3.96 of 5)

  • This was a great price, and if you dont need a huge range (our house is 1000
  • This router does exactly what it should at a reasonable price
  • I think most people see the E1000 at a lot cheaper price and don't really understand what they are getting
  • I just received it today and it looks like it is brand new and at a great price too
  • The E1000 is a decent price considering no more frustration with dropped connections

Reviews around range (3.95 of 5)

  • While the product itself looks nice, and is very fast WIRED, the wireless range is complete CRAP especially with VOICE IP
  • The range on E1000 is weaker then the 5 year old versalink
  • very good product, super-functional ... has a good range in my house, which is not very big ... works very well
  • Anyways, this router, which I am currently using, has awesome range, and it never causes a problem
  • I think most of us would rather have a wireless router with some good range over a pretty one

Reviews around internet (3.90 of 5)

  • The internet is much faster as I was using a slower router earlier.
  • I moved off campus, bought a fairly fast internet connection from a local company, and gave the router a try
  • This is odd because the internet still works most of the time this happens, like right now for example
  • I have a one bedroom apartment, but it is pretty large and I get fast wireless internet whereever I go
  • I work from home and have number of redundant internet connections to ensure continued connectivity if one ISP goes down

Reviews around setup (3.88 of 5)

  • Very easy setup and good connectivity while providing for advanced setups.
  • Then setup fails and tells you to log into their website for help.
  • Shipping was prompt, setup was easy with enclosed CD.what can I say?Works like a wireless router, out of sight, out of mind
  • This wont be a long review, but a glowing one - I used to dread wireless network setups because of the chance you would have to go deep into the guts of your computer or router to truly configure everything to ensure functionality
  • For the price and easy setup I would recommend this router

Reviews around install (3.86 of 5)

  • The easy install is easy to accomplish as long as the directions are followed.
  • The install was relatively simple, and it generally worked well during its stint
  • Do either the easy install or go advanced by entering the ip NOT a combination of both.
  • Right out of the box, easy install and was up and running in 15 minutes.
  • I only have SP2, and I don't want to risk installing SP3 because it was widely reported that installing SP3 caused a lot of people serious trouble

Reviews around speed (3.53 of 5)

  • You also won't need a 10/100/1000 E2000 model unless you are paying for some insane download speeds.
  • Amazing speed, never drops connection and works well with streaming video
  • Bought this router to replace an older NETGEAR that doesn't support "n" speeds
  • After a quick insert of the CD, I was able to configure the router and all computers on my network within 5 minutes - no hassle, great speeds, and a truly easy interface to use.
  • But, wait, input comes in at much slower speeds than the "300" speed (cablevision, which is fast enough).

Reviews around connection (3.16 of 5)

  • I bought my unit from a store some years ago and it's still chugging along, offering a good stable connection
  • Keep in mind, if you don't have the disruptive devices in your own home, someone within your range may have them; and that can upset the connection as well
  • but I do know that several times now it cut out and refused connection, and had to be power cycled
  • Up until today, my E1000 worked great - easy setup, good connection speeds, very reliable performance.
  • It was simple to install, and connection was not so bad.

Reviews around hour (1.54 of 5)

  • I spent four hours (including 1 on tech support) trying to configure this router just to find out the LAN cable they gave me was broken!Make sure you test the cable they gave you before trying to use it.... gah...
  • Nothing about it is easy and after fruitless hours of trying to set up a WIRED network (I never even got to the point of trying to configure a wireless network), including worthless tech support from
  • Simply instead of going into detail; I read the back of the box after spending a good few hours or so messing with settings, connections, ports, etc

Reviews around ip (1.00 of 5)

  • This will take you the web address 192.168.1.1User Name: AdminPassword: "Paste the password from the clip board here"Under the basic set up menu select Static IP for the Internet connection
  • Subnet Mask:Default Gateway:DNS 1:DSN 2:Again do not attempt to go to 192.168.1.1 to set up Static IP directly from the web
  • If your DSL needs a static IP to set up then the Cisco connect software will not be able to connect to the internet automatically
  • I've experienced the drops from both laptops and the Xbox, and the *ONLY* thing that changed in the setup was the router and going from static IP addresses to DHCP.Issue 4: If you PC is set up to use static IP addresses, the installation of the Cisco Connections software will fail since it will be unable to connect to the router
  • However, I have to use the web interface to set up the static IP for my isp, because there's no way to do it in the Cisco Connect software
