    ASUS RT-N66U Dark Knight Dual-Band Wireless-N900 Gigabit Router Reviewed

    Howdy, Preferred connection choices are; printer connected via network 2nd choice would be connected usb on router. If you have a printer which has a ethernet port, that will always be the best method of connection. Use the manufacturers software and get into the printer and hard...

    Farm Wifi equipment choice

    Howdy, With the setup, the farthest location is very very weak. What type of antennae should I go with to extend the eoc-2611p? the gate house at 3768ft / a air802 yagi-wifi-18-dbi or a air802 wifi-grid-24-dbi? or any other manufacturer out there. Again, its pointing to a eoc-2611p with a...

    Quiet 24 port web managed switch with PoE

    Howdy, All manufacturers are coming out with them. I would expect the Trendnet TPE-T80 POE+ to be at a nice pricepoint. The HP procurve would probably be 3x the price... The reason is this... standard 802.11af was getting a little dated... new things have come into the world thru tech...

    ASUS RT-N66U Dark Knight Dual-Band Wireless-N900 Gigabit Router Reviewed

    Howdy, It sounds like you need to totally reset the router and key all the settings back in. It sounds like some things did not move into the new firmware as nicely as it should.

    ASUS RT-N66U Dark Knight Dual-Band Wireless-N900 Gigabit Router Reviewed

    Howdy, It might have been future thinking, and the boards were passed by FCC and they could not make a revision without re-applying for FCC approval. It was probably easier to just leave it on the board and not make use of it. If they removed it, it could have delayed this router another 8-10...

    ASUS RT-N66U Dark Knight Dual-Band Wireless-N900 Gigabit Router Reviewed

    Howdy, Will not work. 24 hours in a day, you want to overlap into the next day. NOPE, you do not have the capabilty to do that. Like another said here, you could just set the schedule, and then use a different time zone off by one hour and you would get the results your looking for.

    Farm Wifi equipment choice

    Howdy, With forward thinking, I am thinking about keeping it all on the 5Ghz range. That way, I know I will not have any interferance from anything. The 5611p in CB is the same but 5Ghz range. (hidden ssid) The eor7550 unit operating 5Ghz 802.11a with omni ant for the other 5611p pointing to...
