I notice that I lose my internet connection when on 40M. CW even when running
only 100 watts. Using ADSL/WRT110 Cisco router with ferrite rings already on
some of the lines. Hardwired to station computer. The inv V is not really that
close to the house, but not very high. Just wondering if anyone has had similar
problems and solved them, before I start rerouting my 75 +/- wires behind the
desk. Thanks.

Thanks to everyone regarding their info on routers, wireless routers, etc.
Interestingly, I can see that NONE of them work perfectly. They certainly
don't appear to want to stay connected. Further, when you read customer
reviews on any of them, they range from the worst ever, to the best there
is. Maybe I will stick with CAT5 cable. :)
As far as Internet providers, I have two choices, Comcast and Uverse for real
high speeds. I'm now using traditional ADSL. It always works. Uverse and
Comcast don't, at least in my neighborhood. There has got to be an alternative
at some point to decent Internet service.
I hope all of you are working some great DX.

it works
Well but does not have the range my Belkin F5D8230-4 does, it stays at
dads
house now.
I don't use any router now, I built up a very low power machine based on
the mini-itx
Form factor and installed a 2 watt minipci card based on the Atheros
chipset. The operating system is FreeBSD 8.2 and it provides routing,
mail,print-serve,DNS and huge file shares.
I can reach it abt 500 foot away but my laptop cant transmit any farther
than that so I still got
A good signal but its only one way after about 500 feet.
My Belkin would reach about 300 feet or so but is limited as a router only.
The Linksys is available very cheap, I paid $12 for my belkin shipped from
ebay seller.

These are the best routers I have ever owned. They are still available new.
When they made the dumbed down model they renamed the good one WRT54GL
(L for Linux firmware). You can get them on newegg.com. . . I just checked
and they're in stock for 49.95 with free shipping. Fully compatible with
DD-WRT, Tomato, etc. . . HTH

Wireless-G stayed connected for days at a time. I installed the DD-WRT
firmware on it with good results (http://www.dd-wrt.com).
Linksys no longer makes this model, but it may be available on the secondary
market (eBay, etc.)
