Wireless Routers

Maverick00 · #1 09-21-2013, 11:02 PM

So i need to buy a new router, this ones driving me nuts. I live in a basement suite and my landlord has an old dlink that just isnt cutting it (dropping connection ect)

Does anyone have any knowledge about the different ones that are out there right now? I dont know that much about them but im willing to spend a few hundred dollars to get a fast reliable connection to everything in the house.

Thanks for any suggestions!

I use an Asus RT-N65U which is awesome, it's around $140.

I just bought a RT-N66U from ncix a couple weeks ago. Well worth the money, no more connection losses between my apex and my access point.

thanks guys will be looking at that model

This will be cheaper than constantly creating a hotspot with the iphone

Ask the landlord to buy a powerline ethernet adapter..... Should work provided the electrical doesnt end in the breaker box
