Linksys Souter Setup
Since the last time I looked at home Routers, home networking has gotten more complex. These days, folks are hooking up almost everything to their home network, either wired or wirelessly: game consoles, audio systems, tablets, handheld gaming devices… the list goes on. And older routers have occasionally been cranky when mixing brands and types — causing more network headaches.That being said, home networking just got much easier with the recent introduction of the new smart Wi-Fi router lineup from Linksys.I’m going to start by looking at a feature that shows a lot of promise in this product series. The Linksys EA2700 is the lowest priced of the Linksys EA lineup that is ‘App Enabled’ — a feature and function set that allows 3rd parties to develop hardware and software that work seamlessly with these routers.According to Cisco/Linksys press material, soon you’ll be seeing computing devices and smart appliances (fridges, etc) that take advantage of the App Enabled architecture. This will allow consumers to control their devices from anywhere in the home, or, by using Ciscos’s Connect Cloud service, literally anywhere in the world. I can’t wait to try this stuff out!
