Configurable as a DHCP server for your existing network, the EtherFast Cable/DSL Router with 4-Port Switch 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 Cable/DSL with 4-Port Switch Router channels this connection through the blazing, full duplex speed of its built-in EtherFast 10 / 100 Mbps 4-Port Switch.

Connectivity Problems
By TonyR Nov 19, 2006
Pros: It's cheap price wise
Cons: flakey performance
The old adage you get what you pay for applies to this boundary node router. It's main problem is with ISP's that use "floating" IP addresses. i.e. your local telco assigns an IP addresss to your dsl modem. Now as long as you... maintain traffic over that IP addrs. no problem...BUT IF you don't have any activity for a long period of time ..OR your IP address lease expires Then that's when this router FAILS. for whatever reason (made in china??) It cannot "learn" the new IP address and when you try to connect to the internet, it fails, One has to go thru a dull litany of reboot the DSL modem, reboot the router, and reboot your computers, THEN you might get on after several attempts. The linksys help desk will have you download the latest firmware revision and reset the router's base configuration ad nauseum....AND the problem STILL occurs. So after a replacement router and still experiencing the same problems I would not reccomend this router to anyone, unless of course you're a glutton for punishment. Read more Less
