Re: Linksys E3200The boss got one last year to set up as a link for large test equipment and a few laptops.
The original firmware was sucky. It's now on 1.0.03 which fixed the Linksys WPS fiasco and allows more than a marginal "AP-only" mode.
It's locked down to few features but I must admit it runs flawlessly in this environment. |

I just had the router delivered to me today. I can't find a power button to turn the unit on and off. Of course the unit comes on when i plug in the adapter but i don't see a on off switch. |

From a picture I've seen here » home.cisco.com/en-eu/pro ··· rs/E3200 it appears to be adjacent to where you plug in the power connector. |

I think that button is a refresh button. |

Now that you mention it, I can't think of a consumer router that has a power button. Nor cable/dsl modem, either. |

It's not like this router is a low end model. |

said by Jammers:It's not like this router is a low end model. Most folks run their routers 24/7, so a power switch is not considered a biggie. In a typical year, I doubt that my router spends more than a few hours off, outside of a power outage. |

My E3000 has a power switch. Not that I've used it all that much since the router stays on 24/7/365 |
