Hey all, have a new flat mate moving in soon, stating they want wireless. What better excuse to upgrade my current crappy network rig, right? So below i have pasted a couple of routers/switches supplied by my local store, ive read the sticky and well a lot, of them don't seem to be available to me locally.
Need a device that is wireless, duh; preferably has an on board switch that can handle four or so pc's, will run a lan game with the above amount of pc's comfortably, torrent a reactively weak flow but capable of handling something a little more when i upgrade my net plan all without crapping out. Speaking of crapping out, i run my current router for about 12 hrs a day so i want one that is proven, reliable and wont burn my house down.
Essentially i want to be able to plug it into the filter and be able to start browsing, if you think a router switch combo could be on the go, well let me know.
The coverage and signal strength doesn't need to be too substantial it only has to pass through 2 or 3 walls. I would like to make a reasonable investment in it and get something that will keep on keeping on. And, if all else fails i guess i will have to order the winning recommendation from another store if my local cannot do it.
So without further ado the choices, if you'd like, please leave your reason for selecting the device...
