    CNET Review

    November 25, 2003

    The Good: Convenient network expansion; 802.11b and 802.11g support; excellent security options; external antenna connector; small.

    The Bad: WDS mode works with only Buffalo products; terse user guide; poorly translated configuration tool.

    The Bottom Line: The Buffalo WLA-G54C is the best wireless repeater we've seen to date, and it's a great building block for an expandable network.
