It is configurable from the xbox 360 menu system, meaning you can instruct it as to which wireless network you want it to connect to, give it access to encrypted networks, etc with no need to configure the device from a PC - which is great considering the included software (if you care to use it) is Windows only. The Linksys WGA54AG is a great alternative to microsoft's xbox 360 adapter ($99).
I reset the IP addresses to 192.168.3.249 & 250. I have run into slow & locked up transmission but since my son now turns his unit/adapter on/off with his computer and xbox powerstrip we've had few if any more problems. Im using a pair of these as 802.11a(5ghz) bridge between my home and my sons home aross the street(150m). to work on my existing net. I did call customer support and got some who new nothing. These game adapters are working fantasticly as a bridge, intially between our xboxes, extending and merging our networks. I had no problem getting into the adapter using 192.168.1.250, setting my NIC to 192.168.1.1.
But it just disconnects again after a few more hours.Very frustrating. If you power-cycle the unit, then it works again (most of the time). I would buy a different product. This product is easy to install and at first I thought it was great. But after a few hours of steady streaming, the 'wireless' light goes off and the connection is dropped.
ive gotten two of them so far on the past 2 years its really hard to get them to work once u chnage any setting on your router i had to return it thank god the store took it back even though i didnt have a receip.
I have a D-Link router that I am trying to connect it to and it simply will not work. I spent over 5 hours on the phone with the next person and still did not get it to work. This product is completely worthless in my opinion. The replacement was a refurbished unit - Thanks a lot, I paid for a new product initially and now I have a refurb.
This product is horrible and Linksys tech support is even worse. Will never buy Linksys again. I work on a tech support help desk with my job and deal with computer problems for a living and this piece of equipment is worthless. I spent a month trying to get it to work on my own and finally contacted Linksys.
It's complete with a xerox copy of the quick setup guide and a burnt copy of the setup disc. This product is not even worthy of 1 star but that is as low as I could go. The first person could not even spell my name (Ray) let alone assist me with hooking it up. I had to pay shipping to send it back to Linksys and when they sent me another unit, it did not work either.
