New Router needed

All you tomato fans should check out routerOS.
$49.95, runs on any platform, and you can keep stacking DSL connections till you run out of PCI slots.

I think you are late with your advice. As far as I am concerned this thread is now about lil sushi f*** fingering other girls.
 
Last I check, looking at pics isn't considered adultery :D

Depends on the combination of the amount of jealousy and violent tendencies that the wife in question has :shock:

No matter how violent or jealous she becomes, it doesn't mean it is adultery, ooooookay??

Does in her mind and she's the one holding the spatula :shock:
 
Broadcom chipset. Not good in an apartment full of clients running Atheros chipset especially when one is already complaining about signal drops. In any case that puny little thing has a 200MHz CPU and 16MB of RAM. It was made before people did multimedia streaming over the network. You wanna stream? You need more juice... And screw wireless for that purpose. Good for light-duty surfing/downloading and not much else.


don't know where you're getting this info, my mac uses the broadcom chipset

Firmware Version: Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0 (5.10.131.42.4)

Correction: this thread is now about adultery and wives beating their husbands with wooden spatulas...

Is that not the Ethernet chipset? Check the Airport.

I have a Linksys WRT400N Wireless Router and it seems to work ok with the Macs and PC's in the house. It has the Atheros chipset. Not sure where it falls on people's lists of good/bad routers.
It doesn't have Gigabit, but most of my computers either don't have a Gigabit card or run wireless.

One of my old routers had a range setting that this one doesn't have, this router sits in the basement and can have trouble getting through the house to the opposite end of the second floor.

I've tried messing with some of the settings to see if I can get a better signal way up there.

Oof looks like I should be looking for a megabit router that works similar to the above with a better range.

Any suggestions?

Will probably head over to Canada Computers for the purchase.

yo thread hijack...

ive got a korean tenant and im on a 300gb plan...the guy downloads a lot of crap, upwards of 15 gigs a day...i dont want to disable his connection, but merely wanna limit him, to say 3 gigs per day (there's 3 ppl in the house.. 3x3x30 = 270 gig) via mac address or whatever...is there a firmware for my linksys router that can do this...i currently have tomato on it...it does not seem to have this capability.

i'm hoping rodney reynolds reads this and would like to chime in here with a video

Your best bet: Get him to pay $10-12 extra for unlimited or reduce his rent by $10 and take away his Internet access.. His choice.

You can also install Gargoyle on your router (if supported) http://www.gargoyle-router.com/wiki/doku.php?id=bandwidth_sharing_setup which seems to support that sort of functionality. From what I know it's OpenWRT-based, with a fancy GUI.

Thanks.

he's stopped leeching, i just want my tenants to be able to get the most out of the bandwidth that i have, without penalty :D

Still keep that in mind.. Your typical unlimited plan goes $10-12 over 300GB plans.. It might not be a bad idea to even ask the tenants if they would be willing to go unlimited for $5 monthly rent increase due to added value. I know you would be in legal clear under the circumstances just like I know that at least one of your tenants would appreciate the unlimited plan ;) By the way, 90 per person isn't all that much.. My wife alone goes through about 150 (i do 70-90) because she streams a lot.
