Linksys WRT610N

details: Dual-N Band Wireless Router
hardware type: Wireless Router
date added: 2008-08-07
updated: 2013-04-30
The WRT610N uses two simultaneous, separate radio bands to increase available wireless bandwidth. It is aimed at delivering multiple streams over the two radio bands simultaneously, while Linksys' Entertainment Optimized Networking (EON) technology prioritizes network traffic so that time-sensitive applications like HD video stream smoothly.

The Storage Link feature lets you connect a hard drive or flash-based USB storage device directly to your network.

Have one. Works good. Communicate to g and n at the same time. Expensive!

Good coverage, far fewer drops in wireless mode courtesy of the updated firmware.

Have a couple setup in offices. Have a 1TB WD hard drive attached. Workes Great. We flashed it up with new software and it broke the connection to the usb attached hard drive. Got the orig. BIOS and works fine and has worked fine. In that office, I have 12 PC's and 5 laptops with 4 networked printers and a networked copier.

Have the WRT610N and WET610N located about 50 ft from each other. There is an open doorway between the two rooms. The separating wall has kitchen appliances along it.

The system works very, very poorly. The signal signal quality is very low, and is adequate for wireless laptop access. But I have the WET610N connected to my Sony TV so that I can stream Netflix video to it. Works about 10% of the time, and lots of rebuffering during the movie.

I have to figure out a way to re-arrange my room furniture to move the router so that it has line of sight to the WET, or find some way to boost the wireless signal.

Very disappointed after sending over $300 for the solution.

make sure that they are both not broadcasting on the same channel
