The Wireless-G Game Adapter gives any wired Ethernet-equipped game console wireless connection capabilities. The Game Adapter can be used in two different ways. If you have an existing home wireless network and a cable or DSL Internet connection, the Game Adapter lets your PlayStation 2, Xbox or GameCube attach to the network so you can get into online games without running wires to the game room. Or, use a pair of Game Adapters to form a cable-less cable between two game consoles for head-to-head gaming -- in the same room, or all the way across the house. It's completely driver-free, so it works on any platform. Since there are no drivers to load, setup is a snap. In some cases, it works right out of the box! If your setups a little different -- just configure the network settings through your PCs web browser, plug it into your game box, and go.

To put it mildly, the WGA54G is a worthless pile of garbage. I've had nothing but trouble since I purchased this game adapter two months ago.
I play Socom 2 online and I get booted every single night, usually every 20-30 minutes. I've spent countless hours with Linksys tech support. I even went out and bought a brand new Linksys Wireless-G router, hoping that the problem was with my Microsoft router...WRONG! I'm having the same problem.
I've spent a total of 4 hours with Linksys tech support...upgrading the firmware, changing the settings, etc. Anything you can imagine, I've done it.
The truth of the matter is this is a horribly unreliable product, period. I hope others don't make the same mistake that I did. This is truly the worst $100 I've ever spent in my life.

Everything works great, except it's not compatiable with my belkin wireless router security. I have to turn off the security feature on the router for this game router to work. I guess it is ok but you have to remember to turn on and off your router security if you use a belkin.
