1 out of 5 stars Not a very good connection.......2007-09-18

I like the size. I like the retractable plug but the router signal strength is horrible. I am sitting less than six feet away from the router with clear line of site but the signal strength is only 38%. If I sit next to the router its only 55%. I would not recommend this router as the signal drops every 5 to 10 mins and the strength of signal is horrible.

3 out of 5 stars Good but not great.......2007-09-13

There is nothing wrong with this product. It does what it is supposed to do, but I think it is a little too complicated to set up and therefore would not recommend it. Linksys could do better on their software set up program. First of all, you should be able to download it when you have an internet connection and they should not expect you to have a cd or they should store the software on a rom inside the device.

It should be easier.

4 out of 5 stars Adequate and convenient - could be better.......2007-09-06

The linksys WTR54GS wifi travel router comes with 5' of flat 100Mbps cable, a 2x4x5 black carry case and required software*. The hardware is light (almost flimsy) but has worked for a few weeks with no glitches. Range and signal about equivalent to my standard home router (I admit - I didn't push the range). Performance is satisfactory. The device has a retractable 100-240V U.S. plug and 1 Ethernet-out port; convenient, but needs some space around the power outlet to fit in.
*Note: the Easy Setup software would not run on my laptop and I was obliged to set up manually "Not Recommended" via instructions from the user manual .pdf file thankfully included on the CD. Indeed- not recommended for novices. Had to reset the device twice before getting it right.
Ultimately, the WTR54GS provides most of the features of a full-sized wireless router in a compact package.

4 out of 5 stars Very good ! still room for improvements..........2007-09-04

This is a very nice product, the only drawback is that it can't log on a wireless protected network, despite that it's an excellent product.

Right now it is replacing a D-link DI-624 router that keeps rebooting as soon as my laptop access the wi-fi, after switching for this little fellow not even one reboot...

Be careful it tends to get hot...

Cheers,

London

This is a wonderful piece of equipment. It works great. The instructions to program it were a little confusing, but once figured out it fired right up.

      4 out of 5 stars Pretty good radio for the money........2007-09-06

      I have this radio (this is just the radio, not the one with the CD player)and don't really have any major complaints. I think it sounds pretty good; I wasn't expecting a stereo in the shower! The only little thing I have noticed, is that when the batteries get low, it is difficult to turn on and off. In other words, you might have to push the on/off button several times to make it turn on or off. But if the batteries are strong, then you don't have that problem. But most battery operated items DO perform better when they have good, strong batteries in them. I just make it a point to use good, alkaline batteries. The better the batteries, the less often you have to change them. In fact, those new titanium batteries last a LONG time! Some of the other reviewers said this radio needs batteries too often. Well maybe it does, but I don't think it is any more often that any other battery-operated items I have. My MP3 player seems to need batteries more often than I expected, too. I just stock up on batteries when I catch them on sale.

      5 out of 5 stars Very good.......2006-02-07

      First off, I'm not under 13 or whatever, I just didn't want an account, BUT about the radio: IT'S AWESOME!!! Don't listen to these other people, because the volume goes up REALLY loud so you're able to hear it, and it also plays the stations well without static and the batteries last a while. I don't understand why this product is getting so many poor reviews. Hopefully you'll take my word for it. I love it. I got this for Christmas of '05 and it's currently Feb. '06 and the batteries and everything are properly functioning still!! Great buy!!!!

      1 out of 5 stars Doesn't even deserve 1 star.......2005-01-10

      This horrible product delivers distorted sound and needs batteries much too often. I'm looking for a better one and will throw this in the garbage which is where it belongs. DON'T BUY IT!!!

      1 out of 5 stars Wet Tunes Shower Am/FM Radio.......2003-10-21

      I attended a Cancer relay and one of the gifts given to Cancer Survivors was a "Salton Wet Tunes" shower radio. Turning on the radio took a good 1-2 minutes and if you were not careful, it would turn off. After one week, it would not turn on at all. I know the batteries are good, because the clock works. When, and I use that word very sparingly, it worked the reception was so poor I could hardly hear with the volumn up high. I was extremely dissapointed in the product. I'm happy I didn't purchase the product. Having said that, I'm sure the group that put together the relay will not request that paticuliar product again. One would think a manufacture would donate a product that is workable because, what better "free" advertisment could one get? This advertisment for "Wet Tunes", went south. This product, "Salton Wet Tunes" is in the trash.
      I hope no one else purchases one.

      1 out of 5 stars Power hungry.......2003-01-18

      I bought this shower radio last year. It did not play CDs, but the batteries died after only a few uses. I don't know if it was defective or if the constantly running clock caused the battery death. I was very disappointed and returned it. Another shower radio that was much cheaper and didn't have a clock runs forever on batteries.

                    Product Description

                    The ultimate in portability, the D-EJ106CK includes car kit accessories and an AC adapter to keep you plugged in wherever you are. A car remote control provides easy playback operation while in the car, and Skip-Free G-Protection Technology helps your CDs stay on track even when the road is bumpy. It offers over 50 hours of continuous playback with 2 "AA" batteries, 10 playback modes, and a Heat Resistant Lid, which protects against high temperature build-up.

                    Amazon.com Product Description

                    With Sony's full-circle D-EJ106CK you get not only great sound and extensive features but a complete car-listening kit, as well, including audio and power adapters and an in-car remote. And at a stunning .625 inches thick, this Walkman nevertheless lives up to its name, traveling with equal ease in your pocket, purse, or backpack. Playback options include 32-track programming, repeat (track, disc, or program), random play, and an amazing 50 hours of playback from a pair of standard AA batteries (not included).

                    "Active use" is a key phrase for this player: Sony's Skip-Free G-Protection boosts the laser pickup's shock protection to minimize read errors that would otherwise interrupt your music, providing quick recovery from both horizontal and vertical shocks. The D-EJ106CK's heat-resistant lid helps protect the player against high-temperature build up, especially when you're using it outdoors or in a vehicle.

                    You can hook the player up with your home system through an optional analog stereo "Y" interconnect, using the supplied AC/DC power adapter to conserve batteries when you're indoors. Should your music require it, the Walkman's Digital Mega Bass Sound engages digital processing to enhance your music with deep, authentic bass tones.

                    Bookmark playback lets you program your favorite songs from multiple CDs and play them back at the touch of a button, and Sony's automatic volume limiter system (AVLS) conserves batteries--and guards your hearing--by capping your listening level at either of two settings.

                    What's in the Box
                    CD player, MDR-027LP stereo headphones, an AC/DC power adapter, a car kit (including cassette-shell audio adapter, DC power adapter, remote control, and Velcro adhesive tape), a user's manual, and warranty information.

                    1 out of 5 stars Almost a Buyer of this.......2005-04-11

                    Why would anyone fork over 60 bucks for this, when much cheaper options are available for allowing you to play a CD Player through an existing cassette tape player. Makes no sense.

                    Oh, I get it, High profits for Sony, lol.

                    1 out of 5 stars What's with the BEEPS?!.......2005-04-07

                    Wow, what a lousy CD player! I don't know about the sound quality coming out of the headphones, but the noise coming out of this unit through the cassett adaptor is unacceptable. What's even worse, if you were to change tracks or pause, there's a SCREECHING loud BEEPING noise. What's with that?! Stay away from this one folks.

                    4 out of 5 stars Decent CD Player.......2005-03-27

                    I bought this CD player at Best Buy using a $25 gift certificate I received for Christmas, and I also layed down $10 more for a 2-year warranty (hard to turn down), which is good for repairs or replacements at Best Buy. This is a good CD player for the price. The sound is excellent, especially with the bass boost on. It sounds great coming from my 6 1/2" Infinity speakers. The car accessories that come with it are pretty nifty, too. I was torn between buying an in-dash CD player and this, but all-in-all I'm happy with my purchase. It works out especially well for me, since I am allowed to listen to music while I'm at work. Most of my day is spent working, so I'm definitely getting my money's worth. There are a couple of drawbacks, though. The button to open the CD player pretty much sucks, especially when you're trying to open it while you're driving. It can be a downright dangerous task at times. The volume contol buttons aren't much good either because they're really small and are also a pain to mess with while driving. The good outweighs the bad, though, so in my opinion it's worth the money.

                    2 out of 5 stars Walkman EJ106CK not up to Sony past standards.......2005-01-09

                    I've owned Sony Walkman CD players in the past that were really good and performed well in my car. When my last unit started to have some problems, I immediate bought another Sony, assuming equally good functionality. NOT. This unit has no backlight - try to change tracks in the dark car. The BIGGEST problem for me is that there is no "resume" function as in past units and no way to retain settings. When you disconnect the power source (as in shutting off the car) you lose volume settings and track settings so the unit always goes back to track 1 as opposed to resuming where you left off. There's an annoying beep if you change from one track to another also. You can turn that off but then when you shut your car off, the setting is lost and you have to reset the "beep off" setting. Lastly, the unit is hard to open. Not a problem if you're using it on a walk but a big problem if you're trying to change CDs at a stop light in your car or trying to do it in the dark. While the anti-skip protection is great and the sound is reasonably good, there just have to be better buys out there.

                    1 out of 5 stars junk.......2004-12-26

                    This CD player has no line out jack, only audio out (headphone jack). So, you need to turn up the volume on the CD player and turn down the volume on your car stereo to get reasonable audio quality on your car stereo using the cassette adapter. Unless you keep the CD player connected to a power source (either to car's 12V outlet using the supplied power adapter or 2 AA batteries), it does not remember the volume setting so you'll have to readjust it on next power up. Also, this unit feels flimsy and seems like it won't hold up more than about a month. Only comes with a 90 day warrantee. All in all, a piece of junk. Not worth $60!!
