I bought a Router/Switch/Firewall from D-Link, and have no complaints.
Works fine connecting my iMac, Win 95 PC, and 6400 to a cble internet
connections. Here's why I picked it over the others out there:
- Dignified metal case
- Lifetime warrantee
- has serial port, for sharing a dial-up or ISDN connection in case the
cable goes out
- Cost $65 after rebate, and came with 2 ethernet cables
I'd much rather have a hardware router than run a router program on a
computer I'd have to leave on all the time, annoying me with it's fan and
hard drive noise, that could possibly crash, and would take up so much more
space. Plus, hardware routers have lots of pretty blinking lights! =oD
Here's the router I bought, got it from outpost.com, and the mail in rebate
is still going on.
