Died today after under 2 years of service. That's pretty terrible for a basic piece of equipment. I have switches from 15 years ago that still work fine. Had to reset the switch fairly often(every 4 months or so). Drove me nuts making me think our DSl modem or Cisco router was buggy. Would work for a while and then just stop passing traffic. Buy from someone else.

Linksys appears to be riding on their reputation. During the 1990s, their stuff was top notch and we bought nothing but Linksys. Then, they were purchased by Cisco, and their quality appears to have nosedived since then. We had the exact same experience as another poster, with indicator lights remaining on after the plugs were pulled from the corresponding sockets, and within a day, the whole unit died. We've stopped buying Cisco/Linksys and found Netgear products to be what Linksys used to be: well made at attractive prices. I'd suggest anyone looking to purchase Linksys products look into Netgear instead.

Bought two of then in a span of 6 months. Both went bad. Spent 3 hours with customer services - approx. 2 hours on hold, and one hour talking to various reps. whose English pronunciations were sad (to say the least). Hopefully, after I send these back they will refund my money. If they replace these two units I suppose the story starts again !! I wish we have negative points - they would have aced it!
