What's the beste wireless router for ADSL?

Hello everyone,
Since I'm new to the Macworld, I'd like to know what's the best wireless modem to the Macbook. I've been looking forward to the Netgear one, but other options like D-Link that are lesse expensive.
So, what's the best option for connection speed, usability and easy setting up?
Thanks in advance!

Just stick with the netgear if you could instead of D-link, a bit pricier is better than pulling your hair out to configure whats wrong...
I use 2 netgear and both work very well. 11b at home and 11 g at the office.
Just remember overtime you might have to set it up the internal configuration (depend on the isp provider) and you might be able to set it up by connect and using pc and with supported web browser like internet explorer to access the web based configuration setting by typing their default ip address.
Good Luck.

What is the best Wireless Router for ichat

Hi Guys,
I wonder if anyone can give me any advice from all your experience as to the best Wireless Router I should get in order to use ichat with a minimal setup hassle. I have a G5 and iBook both using Mac OS X 10.4.3 with an external ichat camera. I am based in the UK and use AOL UK on a 2meg broadband connection. Is there a router out there that has easy software to configure?
Thanks for your help!!!
Apple G5 and i Book Mac OS X (10.4.3)

I use A Linksys WRK54G which is Pack of the Wireless router and a laptop PCIAM (or what erver the name is ) card.
It give me UPnP, Port Triggering and of course good old Port Forwarding.
It gives me 4 ethernet ports as well as Wireless access.
It will handle PPPoE logins if the modem is in Bridge mode.
I have it set to have a Static Address Modem to Router and it is also not doing DHCP And therefore Static to the computer(s).
I would also look at what speed your Internet conection is likely to rise to in the next few years. Some devices can not handle the speeds offered in some places. So make sure it will handle the Uplink and Download speeds you want as well.

What is the best wireless router for my imac G4

i need a wireless router for my imac g4. Which one do you recommend? All all wireless routers capatible with macs?

As Donald mentions, the routers are all compatible with Macs, but the software CD that they include often has Windows specific software on them that is really just a front-end for configuring the router for use. It does nothing that you cannot do yourself manually by accessing the router through the IP address that gets you into the router settings.
If it sounds difficult, it certainly is not. Once you are in - and that is simple - the router's info is in a nice graphical interface that is simple to use.
I use a Netgear WGR614 for my mixed Mac-PC network at it works like a charm. I got it at Best Buy for $39.99.

What is the best wireless printer for the MacBook Pro?

what is the best wireless printer for a macbook pro?

I use an Epson NX430 (inkjet) which uses a wireless card: no issues. Also a Brother HL-3040 (laser) connected to modem by Ethernet cable: no issues. Depends on your printing needs and amount of work space available.

What is the best wireless printers for the iPad?

What is the best wireless printers for the iPad?

YOu may also want to consider that some printer manufacturers have apps you can use to print, and there are third party printer apps you can also use. So really, in theory, any wireless printer will work with an iPad. If it's airprint enabled it'll work natively, if it's not air print then you use their app or a third party app, so you can potentially expand your search to find a good printer that meets any specs you have (speed, or quality or ink cost) and then work with it to make it print with your iPad.

What are the best wireless settings for a WRT160N v2?

I am trying to find out what the best wireless settings are for the WRT160N v2 to have the best connection with my PC (WUSB600N) and my PS3 gaming console. Are there any suggestions on which channel I should be using, etc? My PC and PS3 are about 30ft from the router and unfortunately, I cannot move the router. I have really no obstructions from PC and PS3 to the router, but signal strength is low. If anyone can enlighten me, I would much appreciate it.
Thanks for your help!

Here are some settings which you can set on your Router, and i think this should solve all the problem. As this is the same settings which i have set on my Router and its working perfectly fine.
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...
Leave username blank & in password use admin in lower case...
For Wireless Settings, please do the following : -
Click on the Wireless tab
-Here select manual configuration...Wireless Network mode should be mixed...
-Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbours network...
- Set the Radio Band to Wide-40MHz and change the Wide channel to 9 and Standard Channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on save settings...
Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the Network Identifier...
For Wireless Security : -
Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
Change the Wireless security mode to WPA, For Encryption, select AES...For Passphrase input your desired WPA Key. For example , MySecretKey , This will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network. Do NOT give this key to anyone.
NOTE : Passphrase should be more that 8 characters...
Click on Advanced Wireless Settings
Change the Beacon Interval to 75 >>Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304 Change the RTS Threshold to 2307 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...

What is the best wireless rotuer for Ichat Video?

Hey everyone I just wanted to know what wireless routers have been found to be the best for Ichat video? I know some do not work with it very well and just want to make sure I get one that does.
Thanks in advanced
Graham

Hi Sepp1414,
Both Defcom and I use a Netgear in the DG834 range.
Mine is a DG834GUK
Before that I had a Thomson Alcatel 510v4 which needed and had done the SIP unbinding to be able to contact everyone I tried.
Many Linksys seem to OK.
Things to avoid at present
The BT Hub in Great Britain
Any Pre-N or MIMO device These try to guess what the 802.11n format will be. iChat does not like these for some reason although some are reporting success.
Some devices offer VoIP (Allowing Land-line phones to be connected to the internet). These have SIP bindings of various sorts and are not unbound the same way the Alcatel range was. They can work if placed in the 'right' place in the LAN

What is the best wireless flash for t3i?

I have a rebel t3i and want a good wireless flash, what is recommended?

Hi Chrisvanderhoof,
The Speedlite 270EX II, Speedlite 320 EX, Speedlite 430EX II and Speedlite 600EX-RT are all good choices when coupled with your Speedlite Transmitter-equipped EOS Rebel T3i.
It's really not possible to tell you which of these flash units is best without knowing something of how you shoot.
For simple shots the The Speedlite 270EX II may suffice nicely where as you may want the The Speedlite 600EX-RT for more advanced setups.

What's the best wireless router?

I have a TiPBk G4 running 10.4.10, & my Linksys router just died. It was mod# WRT54G, using 802.11g. I understand there is a newer & faster standard, 802.11n. I have a basic airport card (don't think an extreme is even compatible w/ my unit). Will the 802.11n routers work w/ my laptop & the basic airport card? If not, is there some sort of adapter fix that I could try?

I recently bought an Airport Extreme Base Station (the new square one with "n"). It works perfectly with my even older PowerBook G3, which has the Airport "b" card. You need to use Mac OS X 10.4 to run the admin tools, but I see you have that. The new version of the Airport Utility is the best part of the package - very elegant software. I also use it with a Power Mac G5 (with an "g" card).
I saw that Apple has it on the refurb page.

What is the best wireless printer for new iMac w/Lion?

I just bought an iMac (Lion) and now, I need to buy a new printer since my old one is not wireless capable (HP Photosmart C5280 All-in-One). My old G4 is still up and running (using it only for Adobe CS2 until can afford that upgrade) and the printer works fine. However, the iMac will not be in the same place as the G4, so I need a wireless printer.
I would also like the new printer to play nice with a PC laptop (husband's for work) as well as be able to eventually print from an iTouch and iPad.
I may be asking a lot, I know.
I would buy AirPort if I knew it worked with my current printer, which would be great... but from what I've been able to research, that isn't possible with this model. I will eventually end up buying AirPort at some point in the future, but right now a printer is my focus and I would prefer not to buy both right now.
So my question is...what printer would be best for both a Mac and PC without having to buy AirPort also?
Thanks in advance!

Whatever you do - do not by the HP8500. I am about to take a baseball bat to mine and bett the living daylights out of it. I used to have a 6500, reasonably god but slow and woudl not scan when linked to the mac...so I 'upgraded'.
Initially it worked well, quality is good and did everything well ....it still will not scan with the mac but will with every other lap top/PC in my house..but hat did not bother me too much. It is fast and quality is good...UNTIL
- It drinks ink faster than than you can imagine
- you cannot buy non hp replacement cartridges easily and not from Staples of PC World etc
- It sense that ink is running down so keeps sending annoying messages
- if you use a non std cartridge it registers it as empty and send more annoying messages
- the cartridges cost about £50 to replace al four - you can buy a new kodak all in one printer for £55
- it will print perfectly well with non HP or HP remanu cartridges, but still sends the dumb messages
- when using HP catridges it keeps telling you to replace them even though they are not empty and theres plenety of ink (marketing scam)
- This morning, the printer decided that the new (non HP magenta cartridge) that put in yesterday and was quite happy with ...is now empty...it refuse to print even black until i replace that cartridge.
I have no problem buying HP catridges if the price is fine - but the combination of a software blip plus high prices make me seethe. I will destroy this piece of junk and buy myself a Kodak or Brother - but never ever again an HP product - having spent over £3000 on PC/Laptops and printers from these bozos over the last two years they can count me out from next years forecasts

What is the best wireless printer for MacBook Air

I am a new Mac user and have the new MacBook Air. I want to buy a wireless printer but have no idea which one would be best. I have always liked HP printers for my PC. Thank you!

We have owned several HP printers through the years, but I have been very surprised with Epson. I would highly recommend the Epson WorkForce printer. It's an all in one so it does it all.

What is the best wireless charger for my ipod 4

I got chocolate In the place where I plug my ipod in.

and? You tap the Mail icon on your home screen, and it opens the Mail app. There you can read your messages in your Gmail Exchange account.
I currently have my personal Gmail account set up on my phone as an Exchange account that syncs mail, contacts, and calendar. My office e-mail is Gmail thru Google Apps for Business. I have that one set up as a normal Gmail account that syncs mail and calendar. Both of these are accessed through the iOS Mail app.
I also have a 3rd mail account set up, but it accesses my personal Gmail account through the normal Gmail setup and syncs notes only. This one does not show up in the Mail app since it's not set up to sync mail. This way I have my notes synced over the air since I do not have anything on my home PC to sync notes otherwise.

Best wireless router for use with Powerbook 15"

Not everyone uses the Apple Airport, and some who do have mixed feelings about the various models.
What is the best wireless router, from any manufacturer, for use with an AlBook? What has the least problems, most reliable, strongest signal, fewest drops, best range, etc in your experience.

Joeski,
I'll have to get back to you on what card my wifes laptop is using. I think it's a 802.11a/g, but I will confirm. My Powerbook 1.67 has the built in wireless card and to be honest, I have never looked to see what it uses.
We have our D-Link router set up for WPA2.
Neither her or I have had any issues when we have had to connect anywhere to any other wireless network and when I come home, I can connect back to my router automatically since my network is set up on my Powerbook as my 1st network of choice in connecting.
As far as replacing the antenna, I really dont know. It's has 3 antennas on it and I get a great signal, so I never thought about replacing it.
Hope this information is helpful to you!

What is the best wireless label printer for iPad?

The Epson Mobilelink P60 series and the Star Micronics T300 will work over wi-fi, but not being AirPrinter printers you'll have to find a third-party printing app that will work with them. The Epson P60 now also supports printing via Bluetooth, according to Epson:

Perhaps one of those would work for you.

What is the best wifi router?

what is the best wifi router? I have a netgear which required that I set my devices with static/manual IPs etc... and yet still losing connection at least once a day. Is airport express my best option to connect both apple and PC devices?

Sorry, but that would be difficult to answer. What is best for you will depend on a number of factors, including: current networking hardware, network environment, your budget, etc.
If you are sure that your current Netgear router is not working for you, I would recommend that you first establish you basic networking requirements. That is, what do you want your network to do? What area do you want for Wi-Fi coverage? What can your current networking clients support, both for radio mode (802.11g, 802.11n, or 802.11ac) and wireless encryption types (WEP, WPA, or WPA2)? Will you be streaming HD video content on your local network, and/or from the Internet? What bandwidth (download/upload) is your ISP providing you?
From there we might be able to make sum recommendations.
