Linksys WAG160N review

By Roger Gann (pcadvisor.co.uk)

With its latest range of routers, the Linksys design department appears to have thrown away the rule book.

The Linksys WAG160N is a good-looking and easy to configure router, but you pay a price premium for this convenience. Given that the result is only so-so draft-n performance, we'd look elsewhere.

Linksys WAG160N

By Johnathan Bray (pcauthority.com.au)

Fast performance, slick design and excellent software, all at the right price

Like Belkin this month, Linksys has bucked the beige box trend: this router looks more like a flying saucer than a piece of networking equipment. There�€™s a distinct lack of external aerials �€" two 2dBi gain aerials are built into the chassis �€" which...

Linksys WAG160N Wireless-N ADSL2+ Gateway Review - Routers

By Alex Kidman (cnet.com.au)

linksys wag160n wireless-n adsl2+ gateway review: Linksys' WAG160N resides in an attractive package, and manages better than most Wireless N routers. Better than most, but still nowhere near the hype.

No gigabit ethernet, Wireless N refuses to live up to the hype -- again!

WAG160N wireless does not work

By Chris B (amazon.co.uk)

WAG160N wireless does not work

This is a great looking router and its wired functions works very well indeed. However, it is a wireless router, and that is the bit that does not work. All the following comments refer to wireless clients only. The DHCP server will frequently fail to all...

Poor showing from Linksys

By Mr. R. Jarrett (amazon.co.uk)

Poor showing from Linksys

This router works really well unless you want to go wireless. It connects solidly to my adsl line, providing a solid connection to the internet for the computers close enough to be connected by 100mb ethernet cable. Unfortunately, the wireless connection

Lack of on/off switch the only drawback!

By Mr. Kevin Lunn (amazon.co.uk)

Lack of on/off switch the only drawback!

I've been using this router for around two months now with no problems at all. Set up was easy, range (on draft n) is excellent and the unit has a great design with no aerials sticking up in the air. My only criticism is that the unit does not have a main...
