    Summary: unreliable, drops connection for no reason 2007-08-27
    Comment: I thought I saved 50$, but instead I spent hours reading FAQ, upgrading firmware etc. etc.
    Do NOT buy this product.

    Summary: What a relief... 2007-08-11
    Comment: This product did exactly what I needed it to do - it unleashed me from my office desk and allows me to work/surf on my laptop throughout my house. It was really easy to set up and was up and running within maybe 30-minutes.

    The signal has been strong throughout my house (not that it is that big of a house) but my download speed has been pretty high which was important for me.

    Summary: pathetic wireless function 2007-01-03
    Comment: I took over as an IT manager position for a small company and inherited a HWR54G router. We had a fully functional Linksys WAP11B working but I thought it would be a better idea to utilize the wireless G because of the speed. After replacing the WAP, I noticed that we were getting 54 Mbps instead of the 11 we were getting with the WAP ... but my elation was short lived. It would cycle from 54 to 1 at any given time, regardless whether I used Windows, Intel or Belkin to control the wireless function. We have 3 notebooks, 2 that are about 60' away and one that's about 12' away. It doesn't matter which notebook I'm working with, the result is still the same. I went back to the Linksys because it's reliable and the 54M went into the trash ... probably where it should have been in the first place.

    Summary: The Timex of wireless routers 2006-06-28
    Comment: I've had mine running for a few years now without any problems at all. Not fancy, but it works. As others suggest, don't let Windows control your networks, use the OEM software. No connection problems, no range problems, just keeps on ticking. I don't use IM of any kind so I can't respond to problems with that. Their PCMCIA adapter beats the D-Link and Netgear cards too, we use all at work and the Hawking consistently gets better connections and range. There are other good 54g routers out there, but keep this one on the list too.
