A very difficult company to deal with 
2008-05-06
This is a bad company. I purchased a wireless router from them and, truth be told, it never really worked right. The speed was ok, but it was impossible to set up without tech support and every so often it would simply stop working. When that happened I would be forced to call tech support and spend 30-60 minutes on the phone fighting with them about resetting the router. I recently purchased a new computer and decided to save a little money by moving this router to it. When I called tech support I was told that the router was out of its warranty period and they could not help me... unless I would pay them to. That's right, I would have to pay for the assistance on their product - a working product because it was not under warranty.
So be warned that you are only buying the option to use Linksys' products for a limited time - that is if you have any problems whatsoever that require tech support. I am now trying a Trendnet. Let's see if they are any better.
Linksys CIT310 2008-05-05
The Linksys CIT 310 is pure trash. No help what-so-even from Linksys. Several of us purchased these units and none worked as described. It is better to use Yahoo and pay for the minutes directly than to waste the money on this Linksys CIT 310 item.
Great but !

This is a great phone, very clear ofcourse talk over is a drawback like all voip, one thing i could not figure out is that sometimes the voice ocmes out of the computer and sometimes it comes out of the phone.
if anyone could help would be great
awesome phone yahoo CS is terrible 2008-07-16
good sound quality, great price for product and service. For whatever reason I couldn't get my voice credit to apply to my yahoo account. had to setup a new yahoo account just to get it to work. Then had to call Yahoo's stupid consumer service and yell and shout to get credited back for my first attempt at getting my voice service.
my only grip with the phone is the sound either goes to the phone or the computer speakers. You have to go to audio settings in control panel and set the default device anytime you want to change it between the speakers or phone. Skype has the same phone but their service cost a few more bucks. might be a good alternative just so you don't have to deal with yahoo.
If you Yahoo Voice, this phone kicks a$$ 2008-07-11
Great little phone. rugged too. I've dropped it 1 1/2 times, (second time wasn't very far and onto carpet), and it still works fine, nothing broken. I like the fact that it hooks up to regular land line also, if you need one. Would be nice if it gave you more than a couple background pictures to choose from, 2 yahoo and 1 linksys, oh think there was another but it was awful.
Other than that.... 5 thumbs up!
Linksys CIT310 Cordless Phone for Yahoo 2008-06-24
Great phone. Only one problem is that the volume is extremely low and cannot be adjusted. Based on other reviews I have read this is a common problem. Tech support and detailed installation instructions for problems is lacking. Installation problem I had I was able to resolve by doing a search on the internet. I could not get the phone to work without turning off my computer speakers. However, making a setting change in Yahoo Messenger solved the problem. If you can live with a low non adjustable volume I would recommend the phone. Many places were selling the phone for $70 and up. Found it on Amazon for $21.
Functionally partially satisfying 
2008-06-21
I'm glad I got it for the lowest price I could find. Althought the people on the other end sound only slightly disatant, there's not any static or anything of that sort - but it is pretty hard to hear them, and I've not had much luck in finding anyway to adjust to volume in a discernable way. The calling out works fine, once you figure out what settings to put the mic and speakers on - but that took some trial and error. And just when you think you have it, someone calls you, and the settings that worked for calling out, don't work for calling in. haven't had a chance to convince someone to trouble shoot it with me - it'd take them making a few calls while I try the different settings options. So it's functional. partially. And I think I recall recieving a call on it successfully once, but I don't remember the settings I used. The literature/manuals were not vista based or the latest version of Messenger, so the settings they described didn't apply.
Linksy CIT310, Sleek looks but average performance 
2008-05-31
Having seen this as a bargain, i was happy to buy. I have been using this with Yahoo Messenger for a couple of weeks and i have found the software stable and user friendly. The only downside of the Unit is that the volume is low in general on the Handset and i often have to struggle to hear a caller. I was aware from other reviews this might be the case but not expecting such a weak output from the Unit. If you are willing to invest a few dollars to have the occasional conversation then yes it is worth the money. If you are a serious user, then i would consider investing in a proven unit unless you want to lose what little patience you have repeating your conversation. (Yes two cans and a piece of string would is what i think of here) Come on Linksys you can do better!!!!
