Product Description
A network router that let's you connect your network to your high-speed Cable or DSL modem / For Windows PC AC adapter included Includes - 60-day trial of Norton Internet Security 2003 (packaged by Linksys)

Amazon.com Product Description
The Linksys EtherFast cable/DSL router connects multiple PCs to a high-speed broadband Internet connection or to an Ethernet backbone. Configurable as a DHCP server, the EtherFast router acts as the only externally recognized Internet device on your local area network (LAN). The router can also be configured to block internal users' access to the Internet. A typical router relies on a hub or a switch to share its Internet connection, but the Linksys EtherFast router channels this connection through the full-duplex speed of its built-in EtherFast 10/100 four-port switch. This combination of router and switch technology eliminates the need to buy an additional hub or switch and serves your network as a completely dedicated, full-duplex backbone. Now your entire network can enjoy broadband Internet connections supported by its switched backbone. This unit requires an external cable or DSL modem with an Ethernet RJ-45 interface. This product comes with a one-year warranty.

Note: All Linksys routers now include a special edition of Norton Internet Security! Claim your free CD-ROM by calling (800) 814-0180, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Pacific, seven days a week.

5 out of 5 stars Slingbox Friendly   November 20, 2008
I bought this for use with my new Slingbox and it works perfectly. The only thing is that when I set up the sling box there was a IP address problem where the router did not have the correct setting but it was quickly solved by reviewing all the places where the router needed to check and match IP addresses. Moreover, it does "hide" your computer from intruders.

1 out of 5 stars Good, while it worked   November 14, 2008

I bought this about 4 months ago. It died yesterday. Suddenly none of the computers on my network cannot see the router. When I try to "re-install" using the CD the comes with the router, I get the same message - router not found. I have swapped out cables and change network cards. No dice! This thing is dead! I give it one star for 4 months of service.


3 out of 5 stars Lyksys BEFSR41 for home use   October 30, 2008
This is my third Linksys BEFSR41 router in 5 years. The first one lasted about 3 years and was fried during a lightening storm from a surge through the phone lines. The second one has lasted about 2 years. I recently purchased a new one as almost every day I would have to unplug the router power supply and plug it back in to establish an internet connection. With this new router, the same thing must be done. I thought there was something wrong with the router. Apparantly, there must be an issue with the modem. Now, I have a back-up router! Overall, the installation was not as easy as I'd hoped for. Many hours have been spent on the phone with Linksys tech support over the years. In the end, they always get me up and running.
