Re: WIFI router.. what to recommend? D Link for me. As for security, I did mac address filtering and I did not broadcast my SSID.
Re: WIFI router.. what to recommend? I use the DLink DI-624+ in our condo in SG, kasi simple i-maintain and it's my wife who has to do it (hindi naman siya techie). For our house here in PH I use the ZyXel ZyAir G-2000 Plus Broadband Gateway (got it at a huge discount from our vendor in the office).
Re: WIFI router.. what to recommend? it's fairly easy to make the wrt54g work. if you don't hack the firmware though, its features are limited e.g it doesn't have the the mapping ip addresses to mac addresses feature. just got the wrt150n and it has been pretty reliable.
Re: WIFI router.. what to recommend? anybody uses globeline dsl w/ prolink hp9200 modem? im unsuccessful w/ wrt54g
Re: WIFI router.. what to recommend? using a linksys wrtgc, with C standing for compact. it's a tiny little box about the size of a palm and less than 2 inches thick. i've been using it for about 2 years, no major issues so far. except for a couple of glitches with mac filtering (how secure is this? been having trouble with wep) but nothing a restart couldn't solve.
Re: WIFI router.. what to recommend? How much does the WRT54G go for these days? How does the price compare with NetGear?
Re: WIFI router.. what to recommend? im trying to set-up my linksys wrt54gs at home with my globelines dsl (using their prolink modem), but when i tried following the set-up wizard of the wireless router, an error message would always pop-up and say no internet connection. what can i be doing wrong? appreciate your suggestions. tia. marc
Re: WIFI router.. what to recommend? someone mentioned that routers should be compatible to you local internet provider. Fine. But how will i know if its compatible or not? is there a way to know? i dont want to purchase something and know too late that it isnt compatible with mine. Im using a local cable/internet provider in paranaque.
Re: WIFI router.. what to recommend? I can tell you one thing from experience, steer clear from Belkin routers. You'd probably be better off with Linksys or D-Link.
Re: WIFI router.. what to recommend? If you can find a Buffalo router -- they are great and has a strong signal!!!
Re: WIFI router.. what to recommend? try using the internet without the router first, if it doesnt work, it means there really is a problem with the internet. if it does work, try to compare your settings, router = network settings of your laptop. some DSL have a static IP, so you have to input manually (private/public), some are using DHCP, so that should be automatic settings, and some are PPPoE, that means you have to make a hand shake to the provider to authenticate. so i think better ask the ISP, ask them like, my computer cannot connect to the internet, don't tell them you have a router also, check the manual of the router, there might be some problem in your settings, a missed number perhaps.
Re: WIFI router.. what to recommend? i think the incompatible part is for the wireless, normally the radios for the wireless are configured by regions unless otherwise it has been set for all.
Re: WIFI router.. what to recommend? Mine is a NETGEAR WGT624 i use it everyday and easy to configure
Re: WIFI router.. what to recommend? recently bought linksys wrt54g.. Here’s the steps I took to setup in my mac: Plug in the router’s power cord. Connect the router to your modem via the supplied Ethernet cord and the port marked ‘Internet’. Connect the router to your Mac via Ethernet. Open up the ‘Network’ panel in the Mac’s System Preferences and plug-in the following specs: IP Address: 192.168.1.5 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Router: 192.168.1.1 After applying the settings, open a browser to http://192.168.1.1 using the password 'admin'for ISP settings..
