Title: Wireless range overstated, installation difficult
Product review: I bought a Linksys wireless system largely based on PC Magazine's rating, which stated that installation was simple even for a novice. And, Linksys claims an indoor range of 300 feet. I bought the WPC11 wireless card along with the BEFW11S4 wireless router. I'm neither novice nor pro, but my experience was an extremely difficult installation, requiring three calls to tech support over a two day period. Then, when it was finally up and running, the effective range turned out to be approximately 22 feet.
