LOL... well that's not really unexpected... When you rent equipment from those ****ing thieves in the cable and internet business, they tend to give you the cheapest shit products possible. Then charge monthly fees for it, which will pay for the shit products about 100 times over, while giving you the shittiest possible performance.

Starting to think I should just go with the WRT54GL even thought it feels like I am paying for outdated tech.

The Buffalo router would run circles around that...

Giving the Belkin 750 N+ router a shot first.

I have a Belkin N300 setup at my lady friend's house - works great and honestly doesn't drop much at all (or if it does, I'm not made aware of it).
The one you listed should be find but speaking of getting bad reviews of constant drops....

My only con on it right now is the lack of a built in bandwidth meter in the firmware. |

Ummm OK? the Buffalo router and the dlink router both got lots of people stating they had several internet wifi drops. I figure I might as well work my way from the lower price on up. BTW, I didn't even go for the lower priced routers. Went straight to the $100 routers. That was hard for me. The buffalo router I was looking at was only getting 3 star ratings on average. My big issue with the dlink was the way the USB port worked. That was a big drawback for me. I was going to get it until I saw that. Had nothing to do with ignoring advice. The linksys routers didn't have the USB port I needed. And cut me some slack. I have had a really SHITTY week. The thread gave me a FEW options that just didn't really pan out for me. Since I didn't exactly get a lot of hits in this thread I figured I might as well go the route I chose. Last edited by 007; 06-14-2012 at 04:40 PM.. |

Well, worked like a champ until it hit 1 year. Does anyone make a product that lasts anymore?

I'm a fan of Buffalo, Linksys, D-Link.
In my experience Belkin, Netgear have been garbage.
