    Best router for range

    I currently have a Linksys WRT1900AC. It works well but is not covering my bedroom very well. I live in a modest 1500sq/ft house but it is not providing the needed coverage. I am looking for the router that provides the best speed at distance. Not necessarily the one that will hold a signal...

    Need recommendations on a bridge

    I had come across that one and really wanted it, but I can't spend $130 on it. I love Linksys routers, I used a WRT54G, WRT610N, and now an E4200. But that product is just overpriced. I ordered the Buffalo N300 and it should do the job just fine once configured as a bridge. It should be here...

    Acer H430, Lenovo D400, or HP X310?

    Spec wise they are very similar. I like the HP but they use non-standard PSU's which really turns me off of them. The Acer seems to have a much broader user community than the Lenovo and looks better as well. The Acer also has twice the RAM. Thoughts or suggestions? Being I was a Windows...
