    All in one, but not 802.11a

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 14, 2004 | 2 out of 3 found this Linksys Wireless-G Cable Gateway WCG200 review helpful

    Pros: Wireless, cable modem/dsl, and 4 port hub (switch)

    Cons: no 802.11a

    802.11b/g devices slow down to the lowest common denominator; if there is a slow .11b device talking, the whole system slows down to .11b speeds instead of using the higher .11g speeds.

    802.11a is only high speed. This device doesn't do .11a.

    Linksys Surrendered

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 30, 2006 | 1 out of 1 found this Linksys Wireless-G Cable Gateway WCG200 review helpful

    Pros: Eliminates some wiring clutter

    Cons: Unreliable, dropouts, stalls, can't upgrade, hard to configure, etc.

    I've had this product for one year. I use the product in the Southeast US (Time Warner Cable, "Roadrunner"). When it is working it is typically okay, but often it is not working. Here are some of the problems I see when using my WCG200:... I get network connections that frequently drop out, the unit spontaneously resets itself (typically when I'm streaming video but once in a while just because I've entered the room), it's hard to configure the wireless settings, and when a power outage occurs and I unplug WCG200 for an hour or two some of the secure settings become corrupted and the only fix is to reset the unit back to its defaults and start over. I also don't get 5 Mbps but that is most likely the fault of my expensively poor broadband connection and not the wireless cable modem. All in all, I would recommend not getting the wireless combo solution but instead getting separate cable modem and router, and after working with Linksys customer service I would have to recommend not getting a Linksys product period.
