DO NOT BUY IT DO NOT BUY IT DO NOT BUY IT!!! T-Mobile Linksys RJ-11 Router – Wireless router + 4-port switch – VoIP phone adapter – Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, 802.11b, 802.11g – T-Mobile – external
Been trying to get this to work with two t mobile gsm sim cards at once and it doesn’t work. No caller ID on the second line, unless you are already on a call sometimes. After 6 months of t countless tech support calls to t-mobile, T mobile mobile saying they’d replace the faulty equipment 12 times and then NOTHING!. NO Response from Cisco / linksys about replacing the equipment after the first “level of support”. T mobile no longer has an agreement with Cisco / Linksys This equipment comes with no real support other than setup DON’T Buy it unless you don’t need consistent phone service. I recommend going with a company that dose Voip for a living not a tiny Gehtto Mobile company T mobile. -

Easy to install device. It works like pug and play router .I am using it as a Wireless router in my home network .
My Setup :
——–ATT internet connection . ATT modem getting connected to Internet port of this ( linksys/ Cisco ) router .
I am using both MAC and windows machine for connectivity .
1. Easy to setup like plug and play . After connecting the router to my att modem , i logged into the linksys router using network connection . I was able to open a browser and connect to the router web page . All the infomation (like ip address , def gw etc) was prefilled .
I just changed the router interface password and created a Wireless SSD for my home network and i was done in 10 minutes .
I am not using this router as 3G so i havent tested that feature .

T-Mobile sent this unit to me for use with their “AtHome” service. Setup is pretty straightforward, plug in your SIM card, notify T-Mobile so they can activate it (arrange for 911 location service), plug in your RJ-11 phone and you’re in business.
You get a nice landline phone with a dial-tone, clear connection, rj-11 plug for any standard kind of phone, 911 service, etc. However, there are two BIG problems.
The first is that the RJ-11 interface is a very low power one. In other words, it will only power one phone at the most -and even that phone must use very little landline power or it will cause problems where you suddenly find yourself without service. Originally I tried connecting two phones to the unit with a splitter. The ring voltage on the Linksys is not enough to power two ringing phones. As a result, if a call comes in the phones will not ring properly and cause a power loss that messes up the router, dropping it’s connection to the internet and disabling your phone service until you give it a restart. Even if you have only one phone, it better not have a loud ringer or a lighted keypad or you’ll have similar problems. I ended up having to shell out an extra $300 for a ring & line voltage booster (from Viking). I now have 4 phones connected without issue.
The other problem is Wifi range. My original router was a Netgear which I was very happy with. In order to use the AtHome service I have to replace my old router & Wifi with this Linksys. The Netgear used to give me 4 full bars all over my house where with the Linksys, I can only get two bars if I’m anything over 20 feet away from it. I tried connecting a better antenna which only slightly helped. Wifi output power is simply too low (and unlike other Wifi devices, the Linksys doesn’t offer configuration settings to increase or decrease transmit power).
Cisco/Linksys would have saved a lot of people a lot of aggravation if they only designed the thing with a little more power from the get go.
T-Mobile’s At Home service is a decent value until you add in all the time, effort and additional equipment needed to make it work properly. They require a two year commitment and I have to say at this point I’m sorry I ever signed up for it.
