Grateful Giveaways Father’s Day #8: Linksys

by

 

 

Whether you’re a tech-savvy dad or a tech-challenged dad, the Linksys E4200 Dual-Band Router has you covered! This router has the best range and best performance for the home with multiple devices connecting to the network, like gaming consoles, eReaders, smartphones, streaming video and any other wireless device any home would have.

Highlights of the Linksys E4200:

  • Simultaneous dual-band Wireless-N
  • USB storage port with built-in media server
  • Gigabit Ethernet ports for high-speed wired devices
  • Cisco Connect software for easy setup and maintenance

We have so many gadgets in our house.  We have a Roku, and an XBox, and a Wii, and laptops, Smart Phones, etc.  We were having so much trouble with slow response on our network when more than one device was connecting at once, especially with streaming movies.  We installed this Linksys router and that all went away.  The response on the network is so much more pleasant now.  It was so super easy to set up.  Within minutes we were up and going.  This is definitely an excellent router!

  • (1) Linksys E4200 Dual-Band Router (ARV $179)

  15. I have to say that I don’t know what those features means, but if it works better than my current super-old router, then I love it!

  27. I like the Gigabit ports for wired connections on the Cisco/Linksys E4200 router.

  32. Maybe I should say I follow Linksys instead, even though Linksys IS Cisco…

    I follow Linksys on facebook

  60. I love that its a wireless router lol. I’ve never had one, but always wanted one and hubby has been asking for one so we can play the Wii online 🙂

  64. I love the range of performance this has! We currently have a lot of trouble with our internet throughout the house and this system seems wonderful and efficient and would be awesome to have! Just having easier connectivity would make such a world of difference!

  67. I’m pretty impressed by that USB storage port with built-in media server.

  76. I homeschool and this would be a blessing to have…we have a hard time with signal in our home because of the size…

  83. I love that you can use it as a Media Server with the built in USB storage port (with inbedded media server tech). Nice!

  85. One of my favorite features is that it has a security system with guest logons so ppl cannot steal the internet access and in turn slow my household’s internet.

  105. We have bought Cisco products in the past and I love how easy they are to setup and install.

  106. I like that it is easy to setup AND the fact that it has the multiple connections capability that doesn’t bog down the rest of your network.

  114. I checked out the Linksys E4200 Dual-Band Router
    and really like the USB Storage Port with built-in
    media server!

  137. What is my favorite feature of the Linksys E4200 Dual-Band Router? Definitely its simultaneous dual-band capability that allows it to provide fast speeds even for bandwidth intensive use such as HD video streaming and file transfers! Among its peers in the Linksys’s wireless-N router series, it really stacks up with the best features and capabilities compared to its brothers. A bonus feature of it that I really like is the ability to add USB devices to be instantly part of the home network. Definitely one hell of an awesome home networking gadget! 🙂

  153. I like many things about this router. 1) It works! (mine doesn’t) 2)
    the sleek look is very nice. 3) The USB port is a nice feature.

  171. I like the Guest Access feature that allows you to provide Internet access to guests visiting your home without granting them access to your local network.

  187. I just followed iGoBOGO via daily email newsletter using the same email address I used to post this message. Count me in! 🙂

  203. My favorite feature is the software for easy set up and that mutiple high speed devices can run at the same time

  224. I love this router. The feature that I like best is the Simultaneous dual-band. No more interferences…how good would that be?

  228. i like the easy setup and maintenance w/ the software thats included — i need computer products to be easy to set up

  231. I like that it has Cisco Connect Software for easy setup and maintenance 🙂

  241. Love this giveaway! My husband would freak over the design! I like it too, so slimline.

  242. By the way, I’m already a follower of Linksys on Facebook (you can check me using my email address) so I guess that’s another point for me! Hoping to win! 🙂

  245. My favorite thing about the wireless router is that it has a usb storage port

  249. I can’t choose one favorite feature because it’s the combination of features that make it such a good router.

    I like that it has Simultaneous Dual-Band N, a Gigabit Ethernet 4-port switch for wired devices, speed up to 300 + 450 Mbps and the USB port for shared storage. I also like a couple of the other features as well, like the ability to set up guest accounts.

  256. My favorite feature is that it’s easy to use and maintain, which means a lot when you’re busy.

  265. I followed IGoBOGO on Twitter. @emscout9 (emscout9 at Hotmail dot com) and liked them on facebook (Paul T)
