Linksys by Cisco Model WRT54GS2 Wireless G Broadband Router
Price: US $19.99
Note: No accessories or power cord included.

The Linksys by Cisco WRT54GS2 is a legacy, single-band (2.4 GHz) Wi-Fi router introduced in the late 2000s. It features Linksys's internal-antenna "puck" design (moving away from the iconic blue-and-black dual external antennas of the original WRT54G series).

Key Specifications
  • Wireless Standard: Wi-Fi 3 / IEEE 802.11g (backward compatible with 802.11b).

  • Maximum Speed: 54 Mbps ( boosted up to ~35% higher real-world throughput with Linksys SpeedBooster technology when paired with compatible client adapters).

  • Ports:

    • 1 × 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet WAN (Internet) Port.

    • 4 × 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet LAN Ports.

  • Antennas: 2 internal antennas.

  • Security & Encryption: WPA2-Personal, WEP, SPI Firewall, and WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) button.

Technical Considerations
  • Obsolete Performance: With maximum wireless speeds capped at 54 Mbps and LAN/WAN ports limited to Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps), it cannot handle modern broadband internet plans, HD/4K streaming, or high-density device environments.

  • Security Limitations: While it supports standard WPA2, it lacks support for modern WPA3 encryption.

  • Firmware: Unlike earlier WRT54G revisions, the WRT54GS2 has limited flash memory and RAM, making it generally incompatible with custom Linux firmwares like DD-WRT or OpenWrt.
