Linksys and Compusa aren't conspiring together to mess up people's
computers.

If this router isn't meeting your expectations, why not just return it for
something else?

The BEFW11S4 is pretty old, anyway. Its even for going for $10 on Ebay.

All the consumer wireless stuff by Linksys, DLink, Belkin, Hawking, etc, is
"junk" -- but, it is "junk that usually works fairly well for home use".
Thrown together, no real technical support, etc, is all just nature of the
beast. All these brands have models that work fairly well for home use,
while at the same time have models that have issues. Before you buy home
consumer wireless stuff, you really need to read some reviews on different
products first so you can aquaint yourself with their known issues and
limitations. Again, its just the nature of this beast. Its also possible
that you just got a bad piece of hardware.

There is a reason, other than just name, why Cisco products are much more
expensive...
