Overall, once this wireless router is installed there are no issues. If you have Windows XP service pack 2, you have to go to the Linksys website and download compatibility software. Once that is done, the directions are easy to follow. They have diagrams for you to follow as to where everything needs to be plugged in.

The cost of this router is relatively inexpensive and I haven't had any issues with it once I got it fully installed. I am in no way a computer expert. My feeling is that if you have any basic computer knowledge it shouldn't be too hard to install. I know I get easily frustrated but the fact that so many people have XP you would think that Linksys would address this issue.
