    Do some routers have print spooling capabilities?

    I turned on my LJ4 printer today and was surprised when a document proceeded to print. There were no pending jobs on my computer, and my wife's laptop was in standby mode at the time. The printer has an internal JetDirect card hardwired to an Ethernet port on the router. I checked with my...

    Tim, I saw in another thread where you asked the rep from MediaBridge to PM you to arrange to test the Medialink router. Is that in-work? Thx

    802.11a - 54Mbs @ 5Ghz?

    The first test is here. The second test is a large file download from filefront. I watch browser's progress display (Firefox) and I wait about a half minute to allow speed to stabilize. The third test is drag-and-drop in Windows Explorer (XP SP2). Since Explorer's progress display doesn't show...

    802.11a - 54Mbs @ 5Ghz?

    Thanks for your reply, Tim.

    802.11a - 54Mbs @ 5Ghz?

    As a new member, I wanted to say how much I appreciate this resource. Although I have a technical background, I haven't paid much attention to wireless networking developments. I'm pretty much a novice. So here's a novice question: My b/g router just died. I'm using DSL modem as a router...

    Upgrade laptop wifi from G->N

    I just went through this same research, and was told by techs at two different router manufacturers that using legacy twin antennae impacts range, but not connection speed. Thanks for confirming. My laptop is mini-pci (not express) so my options are much more limited. However, I found a 5Ghz...
