That may well be the case.  Cisco is one of the best in terms of
enterprise support, but that support model is too expensive for the
consumer.  Perhaps they've continued to use the original Linksys
approach for those products which is inadequate (I've never called them
honestly).  In my view, forums are the primary technology support
approach these days, but I suppose I lot of people still call the
support line.  I honestly haven't done that for cheap gear (<$100) for
years.  They need to have an active support community for sure.

I guess my main thought is that this product set and the launch of the
new site appear to be Cisco trying to re-engergize their approach to
the consumer.  It remains to be seen if it will be effective, but it's
impressive so far.
