It says it only supports other Linksys products but I suspect that's more of an issue of they don't want to be called when your cross-brand boxes don't work together. OfficeMax and Walmart have them for ~$80; either would allow a return.
Do you know how the Linksys compares to say, the
Belkin ? Belkin seems to be a lot cheaper and at least on Amazon, has better reviews.
