apparently there's no pop-up window on the directv receiver if you connect the wet610n directly to it, like there is for the wga600n... i tried connecting it directly to the receiver and no dice... but i finally got it working... after reconnecting it several times to the d-link router, i...

bestbuy was out of the wga600n, so i picked up the wet610n for the same price... but i can't get it set up, there seems to be a conflict between the setup cd and vista 64, which i later confirmed... however, manual set up is also a no-go, i can't access the wet610n through a browser page...

i share an internet connection with my tenant (roadrunner/twc), so i have to keep the d-link router in the basement so she can access it (it's the only "common" area in the house)... i want to hook my directv receiver up to the internet for on-demand content, and i REALLY don't want to run a...

also great advice...i didn't know to do this either...i played around with the channels a bit, picking ones that are different from the neighbors ( i can usually pick up anywhere from 3 to 6 wifi networks that the neighbors have set up)...i'll work more on this tomorrow, there were some slight...

i didn't know this, thanks a MILLION...they were pointing vertically, and i moved them to a horizontal position, and the signal strength and transfer rate went up... great advice...for the third floor, i might pick up one of those directional antennas, even though the signal has improved a...

thanks for the replies, i really appreciate them... as for speeds greater than 10mbps, in my neighborhood the only real "high-speed" choices are verizon dsl or Time Warner cable (roadrunner)...i have time warner, and speeds above, or anywhere NEAR 10mbps are just not a reality (even though...

that's interesting, i'll give changing the channel a try... it's a 100 year old house with hardwood floors and balloon construction, the thing is built like a fort, so that may be it too...that's interesting as well, because a friend of mine owns a much newer house with thinner walls, with...

sorry for the lack of spacing between the words in the list above...it didn't hold the formatting when i posted it...i apologize...

i have a d-link DIR-825 router, it's set up in the basement, because i share a Time Warner cable internet connection (HORRIBLE COMPANY) with my tenant, and the basement (where her washing machine is) is the only "common area" of the house where she can access the modem and router to reset them...

where can you get a refurb 3007 for $750? is that a "coupon" type of deal, or is that calling dell up and negotiating with a sales rep? the outlet lists those for around 1k at least (with at least a 3 yr warranty)... i wasn't aware one could be had for $750...any info is appreciated, thanks!

yes, i own a wii and a ps3...but that appears in the list even when the wii is turned off...

sorry for the "crowded" formatting on the above list, i know it's hard to read...didn't mean to post it that way....

i just replaced an old belkin g router with a d-link dir-825 extreme n dual-band router...i managed to get the desktop connected to the internet using a d-link dwa-552 pci adapter (after updating using the atheros version driver, the included software manager/driver on the cd was a...

i've been a customer for a while, and until recently, service calls that required a tech showing up at the house were pretty painless...maybe it's cutbacks or what have you, but the past 3 or 4 service calls over the last couple of years have been awful...The problem, whether it be no service or...
