So, I'm wanting to add a wireless setup in my apartment. I have been looking at a few, but am left wanting more.
I am currently living in South Korea, so I don't really know how that will affect the outcome of my venture. I assume that I can get most of anything computer related, but I could be wrong.
I have a very small apartment, and a Macbook. I have been considering both Airport options (Extreme and Express) from Apple, but am not sure.
Here's the skinny:
- I would love to have a router that can I can stream music to and plug speakers into a'la Airport Express.
- I would love to have a router that I could plug my USB drive into and access wirelessly a'la the Airport Extreme. (I brought a 400gig drive full of movies and stuff as I didn't know what the entertainment was like here...but thought I wouldn't understand most. And I can't.)
- I am not really suck on an Apple product. I just want what I want. Functions. Also, there is no Korean native version of the Extreme. I could have it shipped to me for a little extra flow, but if I can get it here, why not?
- I would like an N capable router. My Macbook can easily be flashed to support N, so if it really is a performance boost, why not?
So, does anybody out there make a router with these options? Music streaming and hard drive sharing? I know they have N routers.
Anyway, are there any recommendations you can give me for my dream router, or if not, just a good one? I haven't looked at routers in about 2 years since my last place could only have dialup.
Any help, of course, will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
