Linksys (SM01) STACK/WALL MOUNT BRACKET 10 PK
1 Save your money.
The fact that it is called a stacking bracket led me to believe that it would be useful for stacking. In fact, it is only useful for stacking some of the smaller footprint Linksys products on top of a full-size one. I was hoping to put it between a couple of full-size units to allow more airflow, but it doesn't work.

Also, as for the wall mount feature, the router (or whatever product you mount), is only secured to the bracket by the friction of the four short little legs poked into the four holes on the bracket. There is no additional screw or fastener. Linksys says "don't put any pressure at all" on the wall-mounted item.

Plus, who needs ten of them?

Very limited use for this product, if any.


2 I don't get it. Neither should you.
This would be useful if you're trying to leapfrog a weak 802.11b signal further across your building that it's designed to go. But why buy the router and mounting bracket for that stepping stone, instead of getting the faster 802.11g router to begin with?
3 Screws aren't included!
You would think that when you buy a bracket of any sort, the package would include the mounting screws. Well, this doesn't and you aren't made of aware of that until you open the box. I'm a strong advocate of Linksys products but this falls under the category of "screw the customer".
