Hi!

I think my 802.11g Airport express died. Always use it when I travel, and figured it'd work in my apartment here in Tokyo (instead of buying a normal router).

Instead, I think it breathed it's last breath last night (random hicups, hangs, drops).

Even when it did work, it'd only give me about 10mbps TOPS.

But my connection threw the apartment building is:
352271808.png

It fluctuates, but never seen it dip below 30 (that is the fastest I've seen it...)

So I always felt a bit jipped, but didn't want to go out and get a something.

Skimpy Requirements:
*Cheap (that would give me the speed)
*.n, as I don't think any other would work (my eee901 & MBP are both "n", only thing isn't is my ipod touch)
*Don't need to cover distance, apartment is only 24 square meters...!
*Don't need LAN plugs (just one ethernet for internet in...)
*WPA2 perfered without slowdown....


I'm pretty good at this stuff, but only know the nice stuff ^^; and I really dont need a router to run a whole house and ~8 clients. So cheap is good!

They do sell buffalow stuff here, any good? I know back stateside they got embargoed...
