"It does what it does."
Version: Linksys EasyLink Advisor 3.11.9
Pros
Makes setting up a network easy for novice users. Allows you to see who is connecting to your network.
Cons
Not really needed for someone that knows how to do all this manually by typing IP address into the address bar. It wants you to purchase Trend Micro Security thingy.
Summary
Decent program. Better than the one that came with my router 6 months ago. Upgrade if you actually use it. Don't if you don't.

"Linksys tech told me Linksys EasyLink is full of bugs."
Version: Linksys EasyLink Advisor 3.11.9
Pros
000000000000
Cons
Linksys support is crap, I received 3 different answers to my problem. The funny thing was one of the answers was the EasyLink Advisor was full of bugs and they recommend their other program instead.
Summary
They told me to download their other program, which costs money. Why should I have to pay for the other program when I bought the router in June 2009. Out of numerous emails to them I never received an answer why I could not have a new program. Because when my warranty is up, and if I have problems with EasyLink Advisor again, I will not have any support.
