I've got a two zone setup that I'm seeking a good configuration setup for, with rather high bandwidth requirements and ZERO capability of a cable run.
Zone 1 is where my cable modem and two PCs are.
Zone 2 is where my HDTV/Xbox 360/Media Center PC/etc are.
I want the maximum speed available, since I want to be able to stream 1080p/7.1 surround video files to the other room.
I am considering the D-Link DIR-825 router with a D-Link DAP-1522. I have heard this doesn't work in the 5GHz mode as a bridge. Is there a good alternative? Perhaps running two routers instead of a router+dedicated bridge combo?
I want a simultaneous dual-band so my laptops can use the 2.5GHz radio while the media center is using the 5Ghz, FYI.
Any help would be much appreciated. Sitting here with my old, recently deceased Belkin 802.11g and a unopened WIR-655 (that I'm returning) shaking my fists at the screen...time to go to bed and hope someone smarter than me can help!
