    Home Mesh Wi-Fi Coming This Summer From eero

    So, I'd guess that the next update to the airport express will included 802.11ac, and it probably won't come out too long after this. So, I wonder, how will this compare to getting a few Airport Expresses for $100/each and doing an extended network using them.

    WD MyNet N750 HD Router as Access Point?

    Sorry I wasn't more clear. I want to put the the My My in AccessPoint mode and wire it net to a LAN port on my WNDR3800 so I can have 3-stream throughput on my mid-2012 retina MacBook pro laptop while still taking advantage of OpenWRT. Provided, of course, that the My Net N750 makes a...

    WD MyNet N750 HD Router as Access Point?

    Zyxel NSA310 & Crashplan - Is it Possible?

    It is possible, but it isn't exactly simple. There are two routes: One is to replace the stock firmware with Arch or Debian Linux, the other is to use either the firmware's telnet backdoor, or the fact that it will run properly named scripts off of USB storage when it boots. You'll have to...

    ZyXEL NSA325 Reviewed

    I think people might also want to consider the NSA320, another two-bay Kirkwood based NAS from ZyXEL. The main differences, near as I can tell: 1.2 GHz CPU vs 1.8GHz 3x USB2 vs 1x USB3 and 2x USB2 ~$110 vs ~$170 Firmware features and UI seem similar, if not identical. The NSA320 also has...
