Im trying to convert all internet/network capable devices (computers, laptops, security cameras, printers, etc) be using wireless.. I've managed to do that to all except for two key servers which I require major bandwidth from so I stick to the wired gigabit network connection. I was extremely fond of the WRT350N Wireless-N with Storage Link Gigabit Router from Linksys until a week ago (which is 2 months since I installed it) when all of sudden I noticed my wireless machines were acting slow on the network and then the next day they all together stopped being able to go out on the net period. I verified on my wired servers and I was extremly upset to see them too affected. I immediately jumped to a false conclusio that my ISP provider was messing up (tsk on me) and totally skipped the router.. specially since I could connect to the other computers within my network. Apparently after trouble-shooting it was indeed my router that was at fault.. I went through the admin interface (it has a webserver running on it) and tried to troubleshoot and was unable to get it working.. I could see it getting an IP connection from my ISP.. but I simply couldnt figure out why it wasnt passing traffic back n forth between the outside world and my network.

I rarely do this but I ended up calling the linkSys customer support line.. the auto discovery Easylink Connect software they ask you to download and hope that fixes things didnt do anything except inform me of the issue I already knew -- ' Unable to connect to the Internet ' .. I called the support line again.. and they had me walk-through a really tedious path of making sure my cablemodem was working (sure - i can agree with that step) but then walking me through resetting my MAC address, resetting the router to default settings, turning things off for minutes and then back on.. ultimately they were able to get my router back up and working..

Unfortunately the incident returned the very next day.. exact same issues.. I called Linksys and notified that this was unacceptable.. they've got a replacement on the way.. I really had high hopes for this device.. extended signal transmission -- upto 4 times the distance as wireless G.. if others out there have had better luck.. please let me know.. and when my replacement arrives.. if it survives.. I'll do another follow up review and let you know how it functions when its 100% operational.
