Which Wireless Router Is For Me???

Hey all, I am new here at the forums and I just have a quick question.
Right now I have a WRT54G basic 4-port wireless router. I have a wired Pc, a wired laptop, and a wireless xbox 360. Now I am looking to take a step forward to the new N Routers because my xbox 360 connecton literally sucks. I am going to buy one of these new wireless N Adapters for the xbox. (http://www.xbox.com/en-US/hardware/x/xbox360wirelessnnetadapter/) But I dont know which new, fancy Wireless N Router to buy.
This is my question, you now know my set-up and stuff. Which new Wireless N Router should I buy?
Thanks

Some good N Linksys Routers are WRT160N,WRT320N,WRT350N,WRT610N...

Which wireless router for ibook?

Hi everybody!
I would like to know which wireless router (beside apple ones) you can suggest (for less then $100) compatible with ibook.
Thanks!

An iBook with an Airport Extreme card can connect to any wifi certified 802.11b or 802.11g wireless network.

Which wireless router works best with Apple products?

Which wireless router works best with Apple products?

I cannot comment of Airport products, as I have none. Nor would I suppose to argue with Kappy or Ralph.
But in a pinch a LinkSys E2500 will work, as it does for me.

Which wireless router?

Simple question, after reading reviews and noting problems. All I need to know is which wireless router is recommended to connect our iMAC, which has Airport Extreme card, to Telewest Broadband Cable (now Virgin), please?

I would say that your choice of wireless routers is similar to choosing a computer. You can buy an Apple product that will be effective and easy to set up and use, or you can pay a little less for another brand which may or may not do the job.
If the Airport Express has the features you need then get it instead of the Extreme. If you do go with a non-Apple brand then my advice is to stay away from Linksys because I have had several of their network devices die for no apparent reason.

Which wireless router should I buy?

After many hassles trying to get my 3 yr old speedtouch router to work reliably with my Macs I've decided it's time for an upgrade. Can I please get your wireless router recommendations for hassle free surfing on a Mac
Many thanks
David

When you want some router advice you need to be more specific.
A router does not include a DSL modem. So if your needing a box to replace a speedtouch then you need an ADSL router.
An ADSL router is a dsl modem and router combined.
You also don't specify who your isp is or what country your in.. This has some implications as if your in the UK for example some isp's use Annex M, ADSL2+ etc. Not all ADSL routers support these protocols and in the UK we use PPPoA IPoA and PPPoE. In other parts of the world only PPPoE is used.
So if you want an example of an all round box that works with 99% of the protocols it is the netgear DG834GT. However netgear now have a wireless N compatible router however I have not had any reports whether this box will work with apples wireless N. However in theory it should.
If you want a standard wireless router to use with an existing DSL modem then I would recommend the linksys wrt54G

Is an AppleTV and Wireless Router Needed for Mirroring Screen?

Is an AppleTV and a Wireless Router Needed for Mirroring from a desktop monitor to an HDTV?

It is one way.
You can also use a mini Display Port to HDMI adapter, and an HDMI cable. A Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter works too.
You might be able to get away with an Apple TV and no WiFi router, if you use an Ethernet cable from the Mac to the Apple TV (never tried it, but it should work in theory).
You may even be able to use an adhoc network with an Apple TV and no WiFi router, but I think the setup would be annoying each time you wanted to mirror and you would give up internt access while the adhoc network was active.

Which Wireless router and WLAN card should i use with my Satellite 1800?

I NEED TO KNOW WHICH WIRELESS ROUTER I SHOULD BUY AND PC CARD I SHOULD BUY.
MY CD/DVD ROOM DOESN'T READ DVDS. THANKS.

Hi,
normally it doesn't matter which router or PC card you use, they all should work.
I'm using a card from Netgear, never had any problems with it.

Which wireless router do I need for multiple VPN tunnels?

I work at home and I connect to my office VPN (SSH Extranet Client) thru cable broadband. I need to have 2 VPN tunnels open as I frequently have my laptop & desktop connected to my work VPN. I've had a BEFSX41 for the past 3 years and it's worked good as it allowed for 2 VPN tunnels. It just died on me a few days ago and I would like to go wireless now. What wireless router(s) would meet my needs? Thanks in advance for any input.Message Edited by nolesworld on 11-27-200606:24 PM

Wireless router options for new mixed Mac and PC wireless network

I just acquired a second-hand dell laptop, and want to move from no network to wireless g/n network based on cable modem which include the iMac. This network must also accomodate a business only Dell laptop running XPsp2 (of which I have no adminstrator rights) and VPN software. I need to share a HP laserjet 3030 3n1 printer.
In reading these and other forums, my choices seem to be:
1. buy Airport Extreme base station for easy connect to the imac, and more difficult connection to both Dells, particularly since I can't install Bonjour on the business laptop, or
2. buy D-Link/Linksys wireless router and cards, set up a Windows based network, and then make the Mac connect.
Because of the mixed network, both approaches seem to have difficulties with communication, high security, reliable printing. All of these are critical for the business computer.
Any suggestions on the more likely route to success?
Cable modem is a 4 yr old Toshiba with 10baseT. What happens when this is connected to a Gigabit router? should I also plan to upgrade the modem?
Thanks

Hello umpire318. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
Based on your requirements, it appears that the Dell laptop will be the deciding factor to which router you should go with. Since you will need to make administrative changes to the Dell in order to configure it to work with the AirPorts, you're most likely have "less hassles" going with a non-AirPort router.

Whic wireless router best for Mac

Hi. I am looking to connect our other Mac G4 tower to the internet via a wireless router but am unsure of which one to use.
Both G4's are running OS 10.3.9.
I have AT&T as my DSL provider.
Thanks for any assistance!

Hi, joni02. I don't know that this is the "best" option, but I recently bought a NetGear WGR614 router to replace an older wireless router that had died. Compared with the allegedly very Mac-friendly Asante unit it replaced, the NetGear router was an absolute snap to set up, with clear directions and a very simple browser-based setup interface. It also tripled the range I had had with the older router — a completely unexpected benefit.
I might add that I also bought a pair of NetGear XE102 Powerline adapters to enable my son to use his Aluminum Powerbook (which has truly pitiful wireless range with its Airport Extreme card) in his room, far away from the router. The XE102s use household electrical wiring to carry an Ethernet signal from the router to his Powerbook. This is a good alternative to wireless networking, where radio interference is a problem and the computers that need to be networked are remote from each other and mostly stationary.

Which Wireless Router has a strongler signal than the E3000?

I need a Wireless Router that will have a strong signal for a 2 story house. I'm currently using a E3000 ans its not doing the job. Thanks!

I went w/ a low-end Belkin wireless router, and it's worked great so far.

Looking for a wireless router/modem that we can configure here, and then just take with us, plug into a wall somewhere, and have the capacity for an event. In past events we've used the same off-the-shelf wireless routers that we have in the office now, but they start to choke and die at around 40 people. The events are 50-100 people; capacity to 200 would be great.
Assume the wired connection is good enough to handle it.
I'm not sure if the Cisco SMB will have something similar, but maybe even I have to go towards the Enterprise portfolio.
Any suggestions?

The events are 50-100 people; capacity to 200 would be great.
Cisco Enterprise wireless portfolio are the 1040, 1140, 1250, 1260, 3500i/e model WAP. You'll may need a WLC if you use the 3500i/e. Cisco recommends no more than 25 users associated to an AP. So for about 200 people, you'll need about 8 APs spread apart.
You can start by going to the website: www.cisco.com/go/wireless.

Wireless Router asking for different password when trying to change settings

I have an "old" wireless router Linksys BEFW11S4 V2.
I am trying to change settings using the web interface.
I can get in using the "admin" password but as soon as I try to change anything (such as SSID, security, etc) and click "Apply", it asks me for a password. This time, the "admin" password doesn't work and I get to a red screen saying I entered a wrong password. I reseted my router and came back to the default but still, I get the same thing.
...any clues anyone?
Thanks.

Try upgrading the firmware from ftp.linksys.com/pub/network ..also after upgrade ...reset the router & reconfigure it ... See if it works ...

Wireless router settings for apple tv

There is any special configuration for the wireless router in order to get the Apple tv working good?
Thanks!

Matthew, so long as you translate your (non-square video) material to a square pixel ratio - say, 960x720 - the tv will pillarbox 4:3 content for a 16:9 display. You'll also be able to reallocate valuable bits because you won't have to encode the larger frame 1280x720 frame.
h.264 is progressive-scan only, so, yeah, all material must be deinterlaced during encoding.
As far as workflows, other than dropping the pillarboxing, I'm not sure there is much more that you can do - Frame Controls with Compressor to output an .mov (keeping your bitrate at 5MB/sec) is about all you can do for HD stuff. Even Compressor 3 Apple TV setting is surprisingly spartan.
Hopefully Brian Gary will chime in as well...

Changing wireless router password for my wireless printer

How can I change my new wireless router password without connecting a usb cable ?
Thanks

We have no idea since you don't mention what printer you have. Also if you want to change your router password you con't use a USB cable. Must use Ethenet cable or wireless connection.
Say thanks by clicking the Kudos Thumbs Up to the right in the post.
If my post resolved your problem, please mark it as an Accepted Solution ...
I worked for HP but now I'm retired!
