This is a piece of junk
I thought a product with the Linksys or Cisco name would live up to the brand. It doesn't. All of my devices lose network connectivity CONSTANTLY. Drives me nuts. I wouldn't give this to my dog. Save your money and your sanity and buy something ... anything ... else.
Pros:
- looks sleek
Cons:
- drops WIFI

Sweet Deal
I bought this to act as a bridge to the already existing AP network. If your tech savvy, you can configure in a heartbeat. I simply logged in updated the ssid and security, configured as a bridge via DHCP and presto connected to the network.
Pros:
- Excellent price vs features
Cons:
- Nothing

Poor Compatibility
This router was very slow with the cable modem and did not support my new Lenovo laptop. I spent an hour with the company site and they could not solve the problem.
Pros:
- Easy To Set Up
Cons:
- Slow
- Unreliable

Drops connections a few times a week
When I upgraded from the last one it was because I wanted the new specs and standards to go with my latest smartphone, this time I'm switching because this one doesn't work.
Pros:
- It's a standard router
- There's nothing really exceptional in this regard
Cons:
- It's been dropping my connections with various devices and requires me to reset the device several times a week.

Worst Router EVER!
I have used this router for about 6 months. The customer service rep at Linksys could not tell me how to set it up wirelessly, so I had to set up the main computer wired then the others could access wirelessly. Since that time, the network has crashed 4 times and had to be redone.
Cons:
- Easy to Use
- customer service
- reliability

Makes a great wireless access point
Easy to configure as a wired wireless access point. (At least it was easy for this IT professional. I didn't use the Wizard to configure it.) Good range and rock-solid for a reasonable price.

Overall a CHEAP Router and probably worth the sale price for most users. Due to performance and network reliability issues it really is not worth the sale price not to mention the retail price. Linksys could of done a much better job in getting the bugs out before releasing this product.
Pros:
- Cheap Price when on sale capable of running DD-WRT firmware firmware other slim flat design barley noticeable in your entertainment center
- other than that Nothing
Cons:
- Slow, keeps dropping network connections running stock firmware
- Have not flashed to DD-WRT firmware as it is still under warranty and will probably have to go back
- Have to unplug and reboot about once a day

Cisco's Linksys E1200 is the venerable Linksys WRT160N (version 3) rebranded, with the Cisco Connect software now included to simplify installation. Of all of the wireless routers for the budget conscious, this one is our TopTenREVIEWS Gold Award winner on our product review lineup because it is...
Pros:
- This router includes parental controls and password-protected guest networking
Cons:
- This Linksys router does not include a USB port and telephone support is fee-based

Linksys E1200 Wireless-N Router
Great product and compatible with DD-WRT firmware - Just beware which builds you load and verify on the forums first. Otherwise you will brick this router! Serial recovery required when things go horribly wrong!
