1. Comment - Report: Cisco to Target Consumers

   (Jan 17, 2006 - 10:52 AM)

   I own an IT support company. We've had nothing but problems with every single Linksys device we've seen installed. Dead ports, random rebooting, DHCP server failures, lock ups...horrible experiences. We replace every one we find to be proactive and prevent future problems.
   
   DLink is probably the most reliable we've used apart from Cisco. Some of Netgear's products are awesome, some suck. It's trial and error with them, especially with their VPN products. If you set up a single site to site tunnel, it's rock solid...if you any even one more VPN tunnel, it's flakey as heck.
   
   We've also used Fortinet's FortiGate products with great success. You can't beat them on a price/performance ratio and in ROI for an all-in-one solution.
   
   That said, Linksys makes decent products for home users. Good price point and decent set of features. But I wouldn't put one in a business if my life depended on it.
   
   YMMV.
