5 out of 5 stars Works with OOL Boost   November 14, 2008
Since the new firmware from october 08' 1.2.10 IPS on allows full speed throughput on up past 30mbps.
I am at 40mbps and all is fine.
No malformed packets
FTP server works fine and at full speed
No issues
I am using cat6 cables and gigbit ethernet cards and switches.I do not think jumbo frames is set to on in eth cards or router.
All good for OOL Boost customers too.

This router basically set it self up. We needed to attach a printer and two computers to the same port and this worked beautifully. Just plug in and follow the install instructions and you are all set to go.


4 out of 5 stars Works Great & No Problems Setting It Up   March 21, 2007
 18 out of 19 found this review helpful

I've had this Linksys RVS4000 4-Port Gigabit Security Router with VPN for a little over two weeks now. I had no problem setting it up and I've had no problems with it operationally. My old Belkin F5D8230-4 Pre-N Router would freeze up every three or four days. This RVS4000 has worked continuously without problem. A couple of very important points, though:

- First, there's a firmware update available on Linksys' site (v1.1.09, dated 02/21/2007). Apparently, this update fixes quite a lot. So much so, that after installing it you MUST reset to factory defaults. So, make sure you update the firmware first thing, and then reset. Don't use any old setups.
- Also, Linksys doesn't seem to care about U.S. Daylight Savings Time having changed. That new firmware, though released just prior to the change, doesn't use the new dates. So, even though the router has a synchronization option and a DST option, I had to turn those off and set the time manually.
- Regarding ease of setup, I'm not using any kind of VPN stuff. I bought this router for it's Gigabit capability over the local network, not for the VPN. So, maybe that's why I had no problem setting it up where other people claim they've had trouble. Or, it could be that the firmware update has simplified things.

Overall, I rate this Linksys RVS4000 at a Very Good 4 stars out of 5. If Linksys had changed the Daylight Savings Time settings to reflect the new U.S. dates, I'd have given it a full 5 stars out of 5.



4 out of 5 stars Multifunctioned Gem with QoS and Jumbo Frame Support!   November 12, 2006
 14 out of 15 found this review helpful

I am baffled by the other reviewers comments the Linksys RVS4000 router is an advanced, integrated router, a firewall and a 4-port full duplex gigabit switch that will satisfy most home offices and home networks. It is economical as it replaces two devices the router and switch, and offers gigabit speed. Nothing else on the market will do this.

The RVS4000 is a gem that supports QoS allows parents to regulate their childrens internet and network access. Heck, the thing even supports jumbo frames unlike a lot of expensive managed 10/100/1000 managed switches; although the MaxFrame feature default is set to 1518 (disabled), and must be manually set to 9600 to get the benefit.

Otherwise, the RVS4000 worked great for me.



4 out of 5 stars Product fine, but VPN for Vista doesn't work yet   February 13, 2008
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

There isn't a problem with this router, it works fine, however, if you are using Windows Vista you are in trouble. This is because Linksys still hasn't resolved why its QuickVPN software won't connect with Vista. So, if you are buying the VPN router hoping to connect to your office, watch out. QuickVPN doesn't work and despite Linksys (Cisco)'s giant size--their engineers cannot solve the QuickVPN problem.

They should disclose this to you before you buy the router. This is why I am writing the review--to warn the next buyer.
