    Upgrade For Range

    Yes, I get near 50Mbps down if using a wired connection. Just a small update - I received the BearExtender last week and had a couple days to see its performance. Some bullet points: -Changed out my Linksys WRT45GS to a Netgear N600 WNDR3400 -Was getting 5/3 Mbps with my iMac's internal...

    Upgrade For Range

    Just a brief update - I've switched out my WRT45GS with the Netgear N600 WNDR3400 and I am getting full bars/signal on my iMac but no detection of networks on my iPad. This is an improvement from the WRT as I would get 2-3 bars on the iMac and there would be intermitted "drops." The iPad has...

    Ok. I will see what I can manage with the Netgear N600 paired along with BearExtender first, and if that doesn't work out, I'll take the N66 into consideration.

    Upgrade For Range

    I am in a single floor apartment with 26 floors in total, but I wouldn't need to access the wireless from any other floors - the main problem is from a corner room roughly 75 feet away from the router. For now, my game plan is to get my hands on the Netgear N600 WNDR3400 and see how that...

    Upgrade For Range

    Ok, I will stick to N routers as I currently don't have any devices that support AC. A friendly price tag sounds good to me as well. I actually have a Netgear N600 WNDR3400 that I lent to someone that I will get back and mess around with. The reviews on Amazon make it sound like a device that...

    Upgrade For Range

    Hello community, I read all the sticky notes in hopes of avoiding any duplicate questions, but I am a lay person when it comes to technology so I am coming here to you for help. I am currently using a Linksys WRT45GS to get wireless throughout my home. However, I have a dead spot in a room...
