    quick question.I can't seem to find an answer on the web.

    LOL, I am heading to home depot now for a brick, thanks so much Tim. I can't wait to try this out. I know I said last question with the last question but I just thought about antenna placement. With the standard antenna people say you should have the left one face left, right one face right...

    Thank you so much Tim. I am looking at getting 3 of these: http://www.data-alliance.net/-strse-63/Antenna-9dbi-OMNI-Wireless/Detail.bok If you have a moment could you confirm for me that this will work correctly with the dir-655? Also, I don't know if this is a commonly known site but...

    quick question.I can't seem to find an answer on the web.

    I would like to purchase 3 9bdi omnidirectional antennas to replace my dir-655 antennas but all the antennas i find online seem to only state they are compatible with 802.11 b/g and my router is n. Is there actually any difference in antenna between n and g? In short will these antennas somehow...

    A few questions from a new guy..

    I always thought that if the DHCP server was turned off on the WAP that the router would generate the ip for my printer using dhcp once it connected to the internet through the WAP and once associated to the router the information could be passed through. So I would not be able to print then. I...

    I got you. My intended setup would have the dir655 as the router and the 54g2 as an access point using a lan port to lan port ethernet cable to connect the 2. the laptops will be accessing the network wirelessly through the dir and my printer since it is only g would access the network through...

    Pender, with the quote below... "The idea you are trying to suggest with the double gateway (or nested gateway) will not have a benefit because they are on the same VLAN every though their subnets differ - a NAT merely separates the two. Doing such a setup is likely to introduce problems...

    Reviewing Products for Reliability/Stability?

    That sounds like a great idea Tim. Between all the users rating and your reviews I'm sure it will just further peoples knowledge and help everyone make educated decisions when buying new gear.

    A few questions from a new guy..

    I just realized I didn't 100% clarify my reasoning for the netgear router. As I explained in the last post I am currently connecting 1 xbox to the wrt54g2 but once the wireless n adapters come out next month for the 360 I want both 360's to use N for the increased throughput so I bought the...

    A few questions from a new guy..

    Thank you for the response. I had such a problem with the 2 xboxes on one router. it would work fine if two people were online playing a different game or in a different room, however my problem arose from call of duty world at war. What happens is my buddy comes over and signs into his xbl on...
