The Linksys WRT54G Wireless-G Broadband Router is really three devices in one box. First, there's the Wireless Access Point, which lets you connect Wireless-G or Wireless-B devices to the network. There's also a built-in 4-port full-duplex 10/100 Switch to connect your wired-Ethernet devices.
Connect four PCs directly, or daisy-chain out to more hubs and switches to create as big a network as you need. Finally, the Router function ties it all together and lets your whole network share a high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection, files, and other resources such as printers and hard disk storage space.

This product does all that the Manufacturer claims. I am no network Guru but was able to have my home WiFi set up in less than an hour and working well. The documentation and the set up CD are clear and logical with no ambiguity.

This review is from: Linksys WRT54G Wireless-G 802.11g Broadband Router (Electronics)
Before buying this router, I had a Netgear router and it was the worst. The Linksys is such an improvement. It was super easy to setup. It is so stable, it has not crashed even once. We have three people who use it, both for wired, and wireless connections. The uses range from, the Kindle to multipliable Netflix streams. I have had as many as 4 wireless devices, and two wired connections active, and going full blast, at one time, with nary a hiccup. The Wireless range is a huge improvement over the Netgear, I can walk almost to the end of the block, and still keep my connection, on my cell phone. Even something as little as the time it takes to establish a wireless connection is much improved, it went from minutes, to seconds. This is the router, that I should have gotten the first time around.
