 Great router, but needs improvement., 2008-10-07
I've had this router for sometime. I like the fact that it has gigabit ethernet ports and a usb port for hard drives, but can't use it because the firmware is buggy. It hasn't been a disappointment so far. I have had page loading faster with this router than others. Video streaming isn't interrupted as it was with my old but reliable wrt54gs. The two radios is a plus for those of us than want to take advantage of it. I don't know if it's me, but this router didn't come with the vertical stand. Is this something linksys is holding out on? In the 5 ghz radio I get lower signal than in the 2.5 ghz radio. All in all, this router has been great. I think it needs improvement, but a simple final n firmware should fix it.
 utter garbage, 2008-10-05
crashes on a daily basis, sometimes half a dozen times an hour. tried turning off all the automatic channel selection and other complexities, which reduced the crash rate to a couple a day. still unacceptable garbage, especially for $300. i have since ordered a dual-band from netgear for 1/3rd the price and i will never buy a linksys product again. beware if you entertain thoughts of upgrading it to dd-wrt firmware that this model has an un-upgradable firmware version installed on it (search on 600n unable to upgrade on the dd-wrt website) so you won't be able to. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT (or anything by linksys) unless you want to get ripped off.
 Seems Pretty Good, 2008-09-30
I purchased the WRT600N (I was replacing my 300N for the Dual system) and installed it. For the record all has worked fine. Unit looks good, wireless and wired sections work very well and there (Seemed) to be a better responce than the older one. In fact I have only 1 gripe with this item. The Setup install Prog did NOT work, stopping with Error 302. This happened on my MAIN (XP32) my SERVER (Vista32) and my Laptop (XP32)so I gave up but it all worked anyway?? I have connected 5 other computers to the Lan and they are all picked up by the new "Linksys EasyLink Advisor" Software that DID install ok. It also picked up my IP Cam and my Linksys Streamer. All in all good machine but "Start Setup" caused me problems. I didn't go into cure because the Unit worked ok without it. Just do the setup manually thru Iexplore.
Works great once you've..., 2008-08-23
I set this up for my father-in-law and the WRT600N worked great once we learned to "unbridge" the DSL modem from AT&T. Once this was accomplished, the rest of the setup went very smoothly. This is the second Linksys wireless router I've purchased and I am very pleased with their performance. On this model, I believe they changed the TCIP address of the router to 192.168.1.0 vs the 192.168.1.1 address of my WRT330N router...not a "biggie" but took a little research to locate. I was also able to easily setup his USB backup drive off of the router so it could be used as network storage. He was pleased with this feature and now has an easy place to backup all of his important documents, music, and pictures. All in all it is a great product.

works great and looks great, 2008-08-17
I could not wait to install the Linksys WRT600n. Fortunately, I have a friend in my company IT department who helped me install this unit and my home network. This made things very easy. Once the unit was installed I noticed immediately that internet speeds increased tremedously, not only over my wifi network but on the hard wired network as well. I was using an older g wifi router from D-Link. The dual band work as described and the network security was very easy to set up. My laptop and other wifi applications noticed the network quickly and was very easy to setup.
The only draw back was that the software that came with the Linksys kept telling me that it did not recognize the unit and asked that it be turned on. The thing is that it was turned on and working. Other than that I am enjoying gaming online, and have found that I can be a good distance from the unit and still am receiving signal. I would highly recommend.
