Poor quality, 2008-04-21
Bought this and although the installation worked fine, I wasn't able to set it up wirelessly in the time I had available, given that the power connector then blew. I had my doubts about the brand, but this was the only item I could find to do the job, but with an eqipment fault occuring after 1 hour, this just re-enforced my view. I would look harder in future and go with a better more reliable brand.
Poor software and unreliable, 2008-06-25
I used this in the wired mode with little issue but with wireless it drops out regularly and needs to be restarted. This somewhat negates the point of wireless printing if you need to reset the box then the printer.
Software looks like it's programmed in windows 3.11 and is not intuitive. This may be cheap but with Belkin you do get what you pay for. Spend a bt more and go for a better Netgear or other manufacturer who spend more time on user friendly software. 2008 and this should not be on the market in this form
useless, 2008-03-17
Absolute rubbish. Sort of works occasionally but doesnt queue print jobs. Causes various error messages in WIndows. Ive upgraded the firmware but its still a waste of money.
Belkin - nuff said. SHould have learnt my lesson after all the ADSL routers I bought that failed early or just didnt work. I'll not be buying any more of their cr*p again
Didn't work on VISTA, 2008-05-25
I find Belkin generally not very good. This All In One print Server - simply didnt work.
1st of all it is a small box about the size of a cigarette packet. Out of it you need to plug a hefty RJ45 network cable and the power supply so the pull from these means it wont 'sit' anywhere.
I popped the installation disc into my VISTA computer (it claims to manage OS's Win 2000 "and above") and it would not install. It kept coming up with an error message.
If things don't work straight away - then take them back. Its really not worth your hassle. Therw will be someone else making a similar gadget that does work - buy that one. Belkins website was 'offline' saying its support server was too 'busy'. Not a good sign. Probably lots of other customers trying to get belkin gear to work (that doesnt).
Buy it at YOU PERIL!
Belkin server??, 2008-02-03
I too have had real problems with this PS and still after several tries with the 'helpline' have not sorted problem. They said someone would ring me but no one has. Many hours wasted!
