Move up to the Power of N! The versatile Wireless-N Ethernet Bridge with Dual-Band can make a wired Ethernet-enabled device a part of your wireless network. It's optimized for streaming video to reduce glitches. It's ideal for wirelessly sharing music, photos, movies, and other files around the home. Since the Bridge is based on dual-band Wireless-N, it works with any device supporting Wi-Fi standards, and is compatible with Wireless-G, -A, and -B. Connect digital video recorders, set-top boxes or computers to your Wireless-N network. Convert your wired-Ethernet printer, scanner, camera, storage device, notebook, or desktop for wireless connectivity.

Terrible reliability
It configures fine and runs fine initially (Hulu looks fantastic), but leave it unplugged or unused for a few days, and it can no longer connect to the web. All the lights are flashing, indicating that it is connected to the network, and I can access its configuration page, but my Sony Bravia can't connect to the Internet. I basically have to refresh the configuration to get it working for another brief interval. The firmware update (.03) did not fix the problem. I used to be a Linksys diehard from the good ol' 802.11b days (my BEFW11 ran rock solid for years) but between their abandonment of the WRT600N and now this unreliable bridge, I'm done with them.

Good bridge
Took a bit to set up with my linksys wireless g but after a 20 minute call with the Cisco help desk, we got the thing to work. The good thing is that once it s set up, it needs nothing else, it just works.

Cisco WET610N Wireless-N Ethernet Bridge with Dual-Band
I bought this based on having tried out my neighbor's WET54g and liking it. Went with the 610n because of its support for dual band. Initially I regretted it when I had trouble with the setup, but once I got over it I am very happy with the product.

Couldn't be easier - Just what you need
I have a BluRay player and a DirecTV HD-DVR that offer additional services if connected to the internet. Running ethernet cable lines is a pain in the ass - it's messy, time consuming and expensive and if you ever want to move your equipment then you have to modifiy your cable run. Soulution - The WET610N Wireless bridge.
I actually timed the installation to see just how long it would take from start to finish.
Clock started: I moved my laptop and its AC adapter to the room in my house where the Linksys Wireless Router is located. That took 1 1/2 minutes. I then opened the box and unfolded and read instructions. It took a total of 6 1/2 minutes to format and configure the WET610N Bridge. The installation CD does not install any programs on your computer so don't worry. It simply configures the unit. Eight minutes after starting the clock, my new WET610N was ready to be hooked up to my HD-DVR and BluRay Player.
It took me 5 minutes to move my furniture away from the wall, plug in the unit, move the dresser back and run the Network Setup option from the HD-DVR. That was it. The screen said congratulations your connected to DirecTV via the internet (or something similar.)
In all it took the same if not more time moving my furniture etc, than it did to configure the Network Bridge
If your DVR has 2 ethernet ports, plug this unit into the top port. The lower one is a pass through like having 2 connections on the back of an answering machine. Plug the lower port into any other device like a BluRay Player or game console and now both are connected to the internet.
Lastly, if you ever want to connect another device in another room to the internet you can either just remove the unit you currently own and move it from one device to another or if you prefer you can purchase and configure another WET610N Bridge and hook it up the same way as detailed above.
