Review: Cisco Linksys e4200 Network Router


PCWorld: Review – Cisco Linksys e4200 Network Router

This gigabit Wi-Fi router performs “exceedingly well,” reviwer Jon L. Jacobi says. Plus it has great features and is easy to set up.


“Linksys’s e4200 dual-band wireless gigabit router is like a box of chocolates, but not in the “Forrest Gump” sense. You actually know exactly what you’re going to get: great performance and features. The e4200 looks, literally, like a box of expensive chocolates. With its smooth, charcoal gray matte finish, this is possibly the best-looking router in the business. All of the status lights are hidden on the back of the unit next to the WAN and Ethernet ports, which heightens the effect.

The e4200 is easy to set up. Cisco Linksys provides a setup CD that will walk you through the process, or you can get the unit started manually via the normal Linksys HTML configuration page at 192.168.1.1. The interface is easy to use, but some features such as the parental controls and Internet access policy could be more intuitive.”
