    Does dual band, dual radio, mean simultaneously?

    Already had the hardware in the form of WRT600N dual-band router, 2 WLAN Mini-PCIe cards and the software was free so couldn't see why not try it and found that the Broadcom BACS teaming utility actually works flawlessly. Imagine you could accomplish the same using the Intel NIC teaming...

    DIR-825 vs WRT610N

    http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=33836&postdays=0&postorder=desc&start=0 Now that the WRT610N is DD-WRT compatible, seems like a no-brainer to me!;)

    looking for a good 200+ simultaneous connection dual-N router

    Happy with my Linksys WRT600N dual-band router. AFAIK, only dual-band draft-N router that can be flashed w/DD-WRT firmware allowing alot more simul connections than avail thru stock firmware. Only problem is Linksys are not manufacturing these routers anymore and have replaced the product...

    What router is best for my needs?

    The Linksys WRT600N is my gateway router. Dual Radio 2.4GHz+5GHz and a gigabyte switch. Still running stock Linksys firmware atm though as still not yet fully supported by DD-WRT... The DD-WRT folks are hard at work trying to get this beast supported though...

    What has Draft 11n done for (to) you?

    Haven't benchmarked my throughput. Previously using a pair of WRT54GS the XBOX360 would stutter frequently while playing Hi-Def content. Now that I'm going wireless 5.2GHz Pre-N from notebook running Vista Media Center --> WRT600N gateway --> wireless 2.4GHz Pre-N WRT160 running client...

    What has Draft 11n done for (to) you?

    Noticed a remarkeable diff running Pre-N connecting my WRT160N in client bridge mode(DD-WRT) wirelessly @270Mbps to WRT600N gateway router. Now I'm able to stream HD LiveTV/Video to the XBOX360 Media Center extender w/o any hiccups.;)
