Title: Info about network routers/wireless Post by: the oNe on June 10, 2004, 12:15:23 am Hi,
I'm trying to find a good stable reliable router to network my two macs. I need some opinion on which one is the best. Sincerely, oNe Title: Re:Info about network routers/wireless Post by: BTs_Lee.Harvey on June 10, 2004, 02:37:43 am netgear has a new wireless router out that is 102 mbit/s......
Title: Re:Info about network routers/wireless Post by: kos.viper on June 10, 2004, 06:33:19 am I would go with a dlink. They're cheap and reliable.
Title: Re:Info about network routers/wireless Post by: .vooDoo. on June 10, 2004, 06:58:27 am I use a linksys, it kind of pisses me off sometiime. Not because I dont know how to use it, but because I always have to reset the stupid thing. It alos needs more port fields if your port forwarding alot of different ports, but mine is old and the firmware just may be outdated.
Title: Re:Info about network routers/wireless Post by: Mr.Mellow on June 10, 2004, 07:08:19 am I had a lot of problems with d-links after we had more than 2 computers on the network. Ended up getting the official airport set-up, and barely any problems since then.
Title: Re:Info about network routers/wireless Post by: BFG on June 10, 2004, 01:01:47 pm set up and ran several lynksis with no problems at all - can be fiddly setting up the MAC address etc but if you know what your doing and you read the manaul if you don't... ;)

Ended up getting the official airport set-up, and barely any problems since then. Maybe it was an older model? I've got 5 Mac's on this one Dlink (3 physically, 2 wireless) we now own and haven't had any problems inside of the network.

Title: Re:Info about network routers/wireless Post by: |MP|Nomad on June 11, 2004, 07:10:07 pm Linksis are good, don't overlook them just yet. Btw, I use linksis and ariport extreme.

Title: Re:Info about network routers/wireless Post by: BTs_Lee.Harvey on June 11, 2004, 11:51:30 pm I have had a netgear router for a while (wired) and I found it very easy to use and set up.. I'm sure the wireless ones are just as easy. And like I said they have one that just came out that is twice as fast as the air port extream... www.netgear.com
