Comments about Cisco Wireless-G Business Ethernet Bridge with PoE Support:
This wireless bridge is rock solid for practically any bridging need. They work best with other recent Cisco / Linksys AP models. Don't expect to set this up as an AP, it does not do that. I will use these in other client locations.

Comments about Cisco Wireless-G Business Ethernet Bridge with PoE Support:
It took some tweaking to set up for connecting a DVR to a secured wireless network (for OnDemand capability). It isn't anything to daunting for someone moderately familiar with wireless networking, but there probably isn't sufficient information for everybody. Once it got running, there haven't been any issues.
