    Cisco Linksys E4200 Maximum Performance Wireless-N Router Reviewed

    QoS relies on having a fixed number (or at least no router out there has learned yet that on comcast it should expect the first 20MBs of a file to be as fast as it can be, and then for it to go to your speed tier). I don't think it's a coincidence that your normal speed tier is 12/2 and the...

    Did you mean E4200 or are you saying the people having problems with the WNDR3700 might just be unlucky? I've heard the antenna's seem to 'lose power' with the WNDR3700 for some reason - some people claim it gets so bad that they don't even have wireless in the same room. On the E4200 how do...

    Netgear XAVB5001-100NAS

    In stock now at Newegg and Amazon. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833122387 I'd like to see if Trendnet's poor performance was a reflection of the 500Mbps chipset or if it's just Trendnet's implementation. Atheros said in real world testing they're seeing almost 150Mbps...

    I was going to get a WNDR3700 before the E4200 came out, but now I'm really just waiting for Amazon to get it in before I get it. Best Buy has it now for $149.99, but then you have to pay $6 shipping etc, whereas Amazon is free overnight for me and usually is lower than Best Buy's pricing...

    Linksys E- 4200 ---IPV6 WORKS! ----

    I think he believes you about it being in there, but he's saying as long as Cisco's official stance is that it isn't there and it isn't supported he doesn't want to lead people to believe it's officially in there by listing it as one of the features. They don't let you see any settings...

    Linksys E- 4200 ---IPV6 WORKS! ----

    So this would be an upgrade from my WRT54G? (non L version, original revision 1) :D I don't personally think IPv6 will take off anytime soon. There's just too much in the way to really switch things over. For example - even if my router supported it, my cable modem doesn't (and it's a...

    Cisco Linksys E4200 Maximum Performance Wireless-N Router Reviewed

    Has anybody here actually used the Cisco support though? I bought an Asus notebook because of supposedly better customer support and warranty terms. (Eg bragged about how fast warranty repairs were, they even used 2nd day shipping it said in the ads before you buy) In reality however, Asus was...

    Cisco Linksys E4200 Maximum Performance Wireless-N Router Reviewed

    Definitely looks interesting. I checked it out on the official site and total shipped for me was almost $200, so I can't bring myself to pay that when I know the WNDR37AV is widely available for $150 (not to mention the el cheapo $30-40 routers). There already are reviews up at Cnet/PCWorld...

    Trendnet TPL-401E2K

    Here's another thought, did you use the utility that came on the driver CD or the newer utility they have on their website? http://downloads.trendnet.com/tpl-401e2k/utility/Utility_Powerline(v6.0.1.00B0003).zip That version was released the same day as the firmware update (within minutes of...

    Did they fail to update at all, or did it brick them?

    Trendnet TPL-401E2K

    Looks like whoever put that Trendnet page together screwed up. Decipher the page source, find the download link and you find this: fw_tpl-401e_v1.0r(5.0.1.01).zip Now, you know the 5.0.1.02 is suppose to have 'Improved performance', and 'Fixed - Intermittent device startup issues.' according...

    Trendnet TPL-401E2K

    Smallnetbuilder's review is up. I wonder if the poor results are something that can fixed in a firmware update, or if there's something not working right on the hardware/design side.

    Trendnet TPL-401E2K

    I hope smallnetbuilder puts it's review up soon. Cnet's is up, but they're showing speeds of 79Mbps compared to 21-22Mbps with the older powerline adapters.

    Look on the breaker for 'AFCI'.

    Trendnet TPL-401E2K

    Any chance your house has one of those breakers they mentioned in a few of their power line articles as causing a 50% throughput reduction? Also, how far away from the breaker box are you? If it's on different breakers the signal has to travel back to that box, then back up the wire to the...
