 Good reliable AP August 16, 2010

Not a whole lot to say. It works, is reliable, and pretty easy to set up.
 Firmware bugs and reliability issues April 15, 2008

I purchased three of these units and used them for about 6 months. The WAP200 is not a quality product. There is a firmware bug in the unit that produces a ton of broadcast ping's throughout the network. After 6 months, Linksys posted a firmware update to address this problem. After attempting to update the firmware on two of my units, neither of them work. After reading the forum postings, it appears that this is a common problem with this model. I called Linksys to troubleshoot the problem on the phone. After 45 minutes I finally spoke to a person on the other side of the planet. They were not helpful at all. After talking on the phone with their technician for 30 minutes, the call was disconnected. I replaced these units with cheap Belkin Wireless G routers and set it to "Access Point" mode. The Belkin units have better range and are far more reliable.
The WAP200 is a terrible product.
Horrible performance November 28, 2007

Needs work. I first installed firmware 1.0.22 and then configured for a simple AP. After a few minutes I noticed that my wireless internet connection was slowing to a stand still from 5megs to 120kb and back to 5megs. I also checked my Xbox 360 by attempting to access pictures from the Twonky media server, and the Xbox 360 would just hang (this worked just fine with my old AP). Then I attempted to configure VLAN, which upon saving the AP restarted. After the AP rebooted the wireless SSID changed to "MY AP" with no security, but looking at the configuration page it only listed my SSID with security enabled. Reboot again and my SSID was being broadcasted with security. I'm returning the unit back to Amazon. Cool features, but needs lots of work.
excellent features and range, but other issues September 24, 2007

other reviewers have covered the good feature set of this unit. it's a good small business model. I was most impressed with it's inclusion of 4 separate SSIDs with selective isolation and security.
it has a great range. was able to cover an entire 7500 sq ft. machining facility with plenty of mechanical noise with just one unit in the middle.
cons: for me, the first unit I got would only transmit for 20 minutes before isolating itself from the gateway and the rest of the network. it eventually devolved into not responding at all. however, Amazon returns dept. took great care of me and the replacement seems to be working fine.
Very Satisfied September 20, 2007

Buying an access point (or wireless equiment for that matter) is a tricky business since you never know how the different devices in the network will work together and setups it also a comfusing business...
I decided to buy this product after reading several buyers reviews that recommended this product.
I live in a three floors house and I have a Linksys router (WRT300N) in the upper floor. In order to deploy the wireless network aroud the house i bought two Linksys access points (WAP200) and placed each of them in a different floor. Setup was VERY easy, even with a WEP encryption.
The reception is excellent and I have full reception even through very think walls.
Nevertheless, when walking around the house, my laptop losses connection to the network and i have to manually "Repair" the connection in order to connect to the Internet again.
Bottom Line:
------------
+ Easy setup
+ Great Reception
- Doesn't work very well with roaming (moving aruond the house)
