terrible routers

mrhuggles · Dec 22, 2007

overclocking the router can help the NAT handle more routed traffic, also you can change the TX power, that will make it send farther [not receve farther] the best TX setting iirc is like 84mw

No problems with my wrt54g either.
I must have gotten one of the good ones.

do you have it hooked up to a ps3 wirelessly? cause that is where my conflict is.

My friend has a wrt54g on stock firmware and he has no problems using it on the ps3, even at 50% signal strength.

No, I do not own a PS3.

I've never updated the firmware on any of my linksys routers.
I have a WAP54G here at work that runs 24/7 without any problems either.

I know that doesn't help you out. Maybe it's time for you to pick up another router.

Stay away from all Wireless Netgear Access points. They're awful. Constantly have to restart mine just to get a decent signal.

Netgear wired routers are awesome though

thanks guys

One thing I must say though. Edimax.

Cheap, simple to use, and never had a problem

WRT54G v1-3, WRT54GS v1-3, modded to run openWRT with X-WRT best option by far, sept maybe an avila gateworks router with openWRT and x-wrt [x-wrt is a web interface that kind of rocks, for openWRT]
