Product is not performing to expectations. Was purchased as a cost saving measure so I would not have to buy a second DSL line. If I cannot get Linksys to solve the problem "again" I will have to spend money that I did not plan on spending.

Cons: Only maintains connection for 5 minutes. Very difficult to set up.
