Title: Didn't work and install software messed up my laptop
Review: I purchased this router to replace another wireless router that kept dropping connections. Upon opening the box I was greeted with a big warning sticker that said "Run CD before plugging in router!" OK - so I ran through the install instructions with the CD and I could literally never connect to the Internet and my laptop wouldn't see the network. I tried for about 6 hours, running through every set of troubleshooting instructions I could find. I finally gave up completely and returned the router.Now, even though I uninstalled the Linksys software - the wireless settings on my laptop get changed about 3 minutes after I boot up, preventing me from connecting to my current network. The only software I have installed is Linksys install - so it is clear that there is something still resident in my system that is rendering my laptop incapable of connecting to any wireless network.
