CLOSED. Giveaway: Cisco Valet Router

By

This post may contain affiliate links, please see my disclosure policy.

The Valet is  a new wireless router made just for people who are intimated by the traditional router. For those of us who may not be super tech savvy, this router has made it easy. You simply plug in a USB key and it does all the work for you.  Not only is it a reliable, solid router – it offers built in parental controls.

As a Mom of 2 little girls (who will be on the Internet sooner than I would like to think), the Internet security feature of the The Valet, is one I welcome.  I cannot imagine being worried about what websites my girls might visit or how long they will try to stay online at night. If you have a teenager, this is a great way to control the Internet usage, without putting software on the computer.

The Valet is made by the company who brought us the Flip video camcorders and it comes from  Cisco, a router brand that people know and trust. Along with its super easy setup, the Valet creates a guest network to go along with your main network. This gives your friends and family the ability to connect to the guest network – without disrupting your network.

    The ability to print wirelessly from multiple computers is a great advantage. Thank you for this giveaway.

    We would probably use the wireless printing. Our printer is downstairs in the office, and I’m usually upstairs on my laptop, and it’s inconvenient to go down there and hook everything up!

    I love the parental control that lets you cut off internet access at a designated hour!! perhaps I should use that for myself 😉 haha!

    Defenitely the time control, i like that it will shut the internet down at a certain time.

    I like the parental controls that let you turn off internet usage after a certain time of day and it also allows you to block some sites. Sounds like a great product!

  42. Lonie says

    I think the parental control features. One makes it so you stop internet usage at a specific time, which is really cool! And the fact that you can monitor what sites your children are going to!

    I like the ease of use. It’s a great idea because routers ARE intimidating.
