LAS VEGAS—Until recently, the Linksys EasyLink Advisor (LELA) CD was something users either suffered through or ignored when configuring their new, blue hardware. But Linksys has given LELA a major face and feature lift, turning a sometimes clunky installation helper into an easy-to-use network management platform, all-around configuration utility and soon even a services platform. You'll find the new LELA being offered first with the new WRT310N and WRT160N wireless routers, then with the rest of Linksys' wireless routing platform and then with other members of Linksys' home network product lines. Because the software is still in the final stages of development, however, those who purchase the WRT310/160N today will only get the hardware and software installation portions of LELA, not the network management piece as well as a WebX-style support service, allowing Linksys support personnel to fully log into your network to see what's going wrong and even help reconfigure attached devices. But one keen new feature of LELA is the addition of an Update Agent, which installs on one PC on our home network and then periodically scans Linksys' site looking for updates to LELA or your router's firmware. This agent will update your LELA package when the code is fully baked, so folks who purchase a new router today will automatically get the full version when it's ready.
