Linksys WET54GI recently decided to move up to WPA encryption on my home wireless network. When surveying my current network devices, I discovered that my old Netgear wireless bridge only supported WEP. A quick browse of Netgear’s site confirmed that there were no plans for a firmware upgrade to add WPA support, so I went off in search of a new bridge.

I choose the Linksys WET54G mainly because it was one of the few wireless bridges out there that I could confirm supported WPA. It’s about the size of a small paperback and was easy to set up via its built in web server. Not much else to say … it’s a pretty basic piece of network gear.
