That's a fair poke. I'd probably find it funny if you wanted to use 4X100mm wheels for inline skating competitions when 4X110mm is the fastest and most widely accepted configuration. It's probably not funny to you if you're not a serious inline skating competitor for the same reason that your...

Oh, my comment on "against the grain" was more for the advice that I got from you and Tim. My wife's in the boat with me on my purchase but she wasn't happy with the results of the Linksys purchase. Nobody was. I haven't worked on the printer issue any further than getting more than one page...

My printer is an Epson Stylus R300 Photo It is connected to the USB port on the ASUS router as instructed. The printer port is a TCP/IP port that uses LPR instead of RAW protocol. I downloaded the 64 bit XP drivers for my printer and it didn't help. I'm stuck as to what to try next. I did...

Right. I guess I mis-spoke a little. When I said I didn't know if it was the printer or not, I was referring to the printer settings and the settings for the TCP/IP port. I know my printer works. ;) I feel like I've seen this problem before when connecting to an HP JetDirect print server...

Tim, Review submitted. Thanks again for the additional advice. I knew the speed ratings in Windows weren't "gospel" but I think they at least reflect (distantly?) the signal strength. It's also good to know that encryption won't hamper my performance. :) I am having one issue that I...

Thanks again to Tipster and Tim for all of your advice. I kinda went "against the grain" a little and bought the ASUS router anyway. So, I'm going to try and capture my experience as it unfolds, good, bad, or otherwise. One thing I remember Tim saying that I really agree with was that people...

Ok, I went against the grain here. I placed the order for the ASUS RT-N13U. I ordered it from Amazon because I know I can probably return it if I don't like it. The thing just speaks to me. It caught my eye with its performance on Tim's charts and others gave it favorable reviews too. I know...

Tipster, So you like the N+ pretty well? I was thinking about one of the Belkin routers. I remember reading a review that said that the Play Max was a lot of money for a couple of minor features and that the next model below the Max was a decent buy. So, I guess I'm down to Netgear 3700...

Agreed all around. The reviews that scare me are the ones that say I tried this, this, and that and I still couldn't get any reliable service or performance. I'll probably stay with a safer bet than the ASUS. I suppose the Netgear or maybe even the EnG could be options if I'm willing to forgo...

Tim, Thanks for your candor. Wow, I just checked out the ASUSTek forums and there are a few horror stories about the 13U router. Some people saying they were gonna go "office space" on it and beat it to bits! That's about how I feel with my WRT120N. I'm sure there are the same stories for...

I agree on your 3000 vs 610 statement. Seems I read somewhere that the only difference between the two is the price and maybe some cosmetics. ;)

@Tipster, That's a pretty stout machine, the ASUS NAS router. Unfortunately, it would look funny sitting in the dainty little spot that my current router is in, not to mention it's about $500 beyond my price range. I do think the two router setup I mentioned has merit though (one as a wired...

I'm a n00b here so forgive me if I step on toes. I'm in the same boat as far as reviews. I hope you don't view this as hijacking your thread but I'm really needing some help so I can pull the trigger and I think my problem relates to yours. I love the ASUS RT-N13U but another review site...
