14 DAY TRIAL // Linksys has integrated a special developed software tool - the Linksys Easy Link Advisor (LELA) into its latest Wireless-G Broadband Router with SpeedBooster named WRT54GS, and announced that the 'package' has been already shipped to the retail market.
The Linksys Easy Link Advisor (LELA) application is meant to simplify the way in which you manage and set the wireless networks. More precisely, all the products featuring LELA simplify the wireless network installation, management, and monitoring, while providing 'tutorials' to help you get accustomed with the network.
"LELA offers consumers unique features that are great differentiators for the Linksys product line," said Mani Dhillon, director of product marketing, Home Networking, Linksys. "As we add even more to the current functionality of LELA, Linksys will continue to set the standard for ease of use in home networking."
Also, the installation runs automatically, meaning that you will not have to bump into 'the common used' 15 configuration choices. But the program also checks the computer for problems that would obstruct the installation process and then displays a series of short videos in which you are taught how to install and run the program.
"When a network is created using LELA, a dynamic network map or Dashboard is created that provides an easy way to quickly view the status of devices on the network. Anytime a new Linksys device is added to the network, LELA will add it to the Dashboard. Technology-savvy users who like to further tailor the settings of devices on their network can access LELA's advanced configuration pages with one simple click," explained the manufacturer cited by Hardware Zone.
But this is not it, as LELA can instantly detect if a device is not properly connected to the network and displays a network map that shows you where the problem is. The software application also sports a network status box that has wizards for troubleshooting and repairing the connectivity issues previously identified on the network map and provides real-time alerts regarding the status of the network.
