Reviews of the NetGear WGPS606 54 Mbps Wireless Print Server w/4 Port Switch
-
CNET Review
The Good: Inexpensive; supports up to two printers; doubles as a four-port Ethernet switch; also serves as a Wi-Fi range extender.
The Bad: Not compatible with all printers; setup process is occasionally confusing; lacks extensive printed manual.
The Bottom Line: Though it works with only a smattering of printers and can be a chore to configure, this Wi-Fi print server gets the job done.
