device a part of your wireless network. At home, use the Bridge to connect game consoles, set-top boxes, or computers to your Wireless-G network and its shared high-speed Internet connection. In the office, convert your Ethernet-wired printer, scanner, camera, notebook or desktop into a wireless networked device. It's completely driver-free, so it works on any platform and under any operating system! Since there are no drivers to load, setup is a snap - configure the network settings through your PC's web browser, then plug it into your device and go. And physical installation is simplified by support for Power Over Ethernet. With an optional POE Adapter, you can mount the Bridge wherever you want - power and data are both supplied through the Category 5 Ethernet cable. You can also use the Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge as a kind of "cable-less cable" to connect remote areas together. Maybe shipping is all the way across the warehouse from receiving. Or maybe you want to set up a home office in your detached garage. With a Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge in the garage, and another one (or a Wireless-G Access Point) in the house, you're connected - no digging trenches, and no overhead wires. Let the Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge from Linksys open up exciting new possibilities for your wireless network.

Cons: Life span is very short
I have used with great satisfaction many Linksys products, and have also recommended them many times. This has all ended after purchasing this product. After 30 days of use the product died, so called Linksys and they replace it with a used unit. After two weeks of using the used replacement unit it also died. Again I had to pay to ship the unit back. They have had my returned unit for almost two weeks and when I call, now twice, they tell me it's going to ship that day. ...

Pros: It does
Cons: No WAP yet
After reading the reviews and seeing the few people who wrote a review complaining about the Linksys device not working, I doubt it was the device. They are all created equal and sometimes there's one in a thousand that fail or fall through the cracks.
The reason you might want to bridge a wireless network is so you don't have to purchase a wireless adapter for every computer you have. I have many computers in 2 different locations, so $$$ wise, the bridge works in my advantage.
