Laurent, excuse me for getting on the subject, but i have had a Graphite Airport Base station that was a little "Flaky" and decided to replace it by a D-Link DI-614+ from the " b" family of wireless product. Nothing fancy and less than half of the price of my Graphite Base station. You configure it using your browser, and the phone support is fantastic, and i should also mention that it's valid for life, not 90 Days. Works with any Apple Airport Card. Great solution and the coverage is somewhat broader than the original Airport. work great under OSX and 9.
Thanks for the head-up, Hugo. Does it support AppleTalk? I still have a
LaserWriter 16/600PS which uses EtherTalk (AppleTalk over Ethernet), so I
need to be able to print wirelessly...
-Laurent.
I have the D-Link router and a 16/600 also (great printer). The router doesn't pass AT wireless, but you can print to the 16/600 via IP, which is how I have it set up. You have to be in OS9 to use the Laserwriter utility to check/change the printer's IP address, but printing works fine via Airport in my TiBook. Well, as long as I'm within 30 feet of the router, since the reception is so poor on these.
