The Linksys Dual-Band Wireless A+G Is Touted For Its Excellent Speed And Range
IRVINE, Calif., May 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Linksys(R), the worldwide leader in shipments of wireless networking devices, today announced their first CNET Editors' Choice award for the Dual-Band Wireless A+G Router (WRT55AG). This award recognizes outstanding computing and electronics products that CNET reviews editors have chosen to represent the top quality, design and service to users.
CNET praised the Dual-Band Router, which was released earlier this quarter, for being "the wireless world's long-distance runner by maintaining a solid connection up to 150 ft away." The CNET review also noted "despite the WRT55AG's reliance on an unfinished standard, it passed our compatibility tests with flying colors, connecting with radios of varying age and protocol, including several older 802.11b clients and a Toshiba 740e Pocket PC."
"Linksys is honored to have received our first CNET Editors' Choice award for our Dual-Band Wireless A+G Router," said Ben Sakai, Senior Product Manager at, Linksys. "We are pleased to have developed the first stellar dual-band A+G router to market. As such, we continue to work smarter and concentrate on developing cutting edge products to meet the needs of our customers."
The ability to simultaneously support all IEEE approved standard 802.11 modes is the jack-of-all-networking-trades. Linksys WRT55AG is easy to set up and comes with a handsome security package, Symantec's Norton Internet Security Suite for a 60-day trial period. The product also comes with a three- year warranty and 24/7 online, email and real time customer service.
