    DIY home Wireless router: help needed

    Ah, OK. Bit of a mix-up there. Probably because setting up a dual-band wireless router never even crossed my mind. The wireless network is basically for my laptop in the bedroom (mostly Youtube and web browsing, so no big bandwidth needs there) and my smartphone; all my HD video viewing is made...

    DIY home Wireless router: help needed

    Thanks for the reply, overdrive31. I have tried both Connectify and Virtual Wifi (as I said, I've been around since the DOS era, so I'm familiar with the command line... hehehe), to no avail with both of them. And Connectify, at least on Atom machines, seems a big NO-NO, it takes FOREVER to...

    DIY routers: Challenge to SNB

    I already had a (rather lengthy) reply to Stonecat ready when I noticed a new reply to the thread. Bummer, I guess that's a no-go :( Better than nothing! At least we have a baseline... Please do test more than one OS, Stonecat. OK, now a couple of tidbids from my reply, I think they still...

    DIY routers: Challenge to SNB

    Hello there, guys. I'm an avid SmallNetBuilder Portuguese reader for at least three to four years, now, and I really appreciate all the things SNB has been doing over the years, from the tutorials to the reviews. I just registered to the forums because I have one subject I'd like to be focused...
