    Router and WAP- same channel range of different?

    So, I decided to take out the guest network. Now I have two 40 Mhz channels (1 and 11) that overlap a bit in the middle but carry the same SSID. My coverage is good and speed is good. Is there a better way than that? https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B_d2JKjIjUA0Tkp6WGtzWFdtYVk Thanks, Pat

    Router and WAP- same channel range of different?

    Thanks! I use channel 1 for the main router and channel 6 for the secondary router. The SSID's that are mine are "patnshan" and "patnshan-guest". You can see that there are about 19 AP's in my area, most located in the lower channel ranges. Thanks, Pat...

    Replaced WAP with switch, now no connection through switch?

    I checked and I had it router > switch > switch (which I thought you could do??). I changed it to router > switch and router > switch and now it works. Question though. Can't you stack switches? Thanks much! Pat

    Replaced WAP with switch, now no connection through switch?

    Hello, I have my new router up and running. As part of the upgrade, I replaced an old WRT54G I had been using as a wired WAP and switch in my living room with a Trendnet 8 port gigabit switch. I was getting good connection of my TV, XBOX, Blu Ray players through the LAN ports on the WAP...

    Buffalo WZR-HP-G450H

    So I got the router all set up and connected. I haven't had much time to play with it yet. Basic setup was easy, but the documentation is pretty poor on how to use its many features. I have no idea how to connect to 2.4 vs 5 Ghz, no idea how to setup a guest network. Nowhere in the CD based...

    Buffalo WZR-HP-G450H

    So I ordered the Buffalo router recommended on the "help me pick a router" thread and am awaiting its arrival. I have been doing a little reading over at the DD-WRT site and also searched for the latest build for this router. The router itself is not listed. There is some talk about...

    The Router Recommendations Thread (Consumer)

    The Buffalo you list is going for $59 AR from Newegg right now. The reviews on that site scare me a bit, but at almost half the Netgear 3700 I was considering, I am going to give it a try. I will use it with the two new gigabit switches I bought. Question, if I do end up needing a WAP with...

    Recommend a Router

    It says November 2010, which is why I was thrown off a bit. I am leaning towards the Netgear 3700 personally. Pat

    The Router Recommendations Thread (Consumer)

    Hello, I have been using my current setup (WRT 100 as router (stock), BEFSR41 (stock) as a switch, and WRT54G with DD-WRT as a wired WAP. I am looking to upgrade for a few reasons including more range and greater wireless speed. I also need more LAN ports but have solved that by getting two 8...
