Hello All,
need some help here. I have a lot of wireless devices in a 1 story house. My access point (Linksys wrt54g) is in the garage. There's a NAS connected to the router over ethernet (1000mbs).
Living room (1 wall away from the garage, good reception):
- Apple TV (N)
- Wii (G, rarely used)
Home Office (2 outside house walls, weak signal, slow transfers)
- macbookpro (N), my main dev laptop
- dell desktop (internal G)
- music server (asus eee pc with G) - need a reliable wireless for lossless music
Roaming devices:
2 more laptops (G and N)
2 iphone 3gs (G)
Problems I have is weak signal in the office, router dropping wireless from time to time.
Solution:
I have narrowed down the list to Netgear 3700 (dual band, $150) and buffalo high power WZR-HP-G300NH(single band, $100). My idea was to wait for CES and see if anything new comes up.
The alternative would be to purchase something like http://www.ubnt.com/powerapn which I used in one of my projects before and it was very very reliable.
