I plan to get an AirPort+Modem for my home, but for my office I'd like to get a less expensive option that will let me wander the office and outside area. Ideally it would be something that would work equally well with a 15 PB as well as a Windows XP laptop. If anyone has recommendations,

Any 802.11g Linksys will work. But it'll have to be configured using the Windoze laptop. After that it act the same as an Airport. N on 3/29/04 10:02 AM, Timothy J. Luoma at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I plan to get an AirPort+Modem for my home, but for my office I'd like to get a less

I run a mixed network here as well. I use a US Robotics 802.11g Turbo router. It has 100Mbs capacity, both wired ports and the wireless. Works great. It replaced an SMC Barricade 802.11b router that I had nothing but trouble with. I highly recommend the USR router. Rad... Timothy J.

Interesting. I have used Linksys in the past. Have had not great luck with the products but good luck with the support. Configure via web is also interesting. One thing I forgot to mention was important is RANGE. I hope to find one with enough juice to give me a good amount of space to

I had the same one you had initially, worked about 2 weeks and died, they replaced it. It worked sporadically for the last year, needing to be powered off and back on frequently to keep it working. Then it finally died completely, just out of warranty. That's when I got the USR. I have used

My thoughts on this were that the Apple unit was more compatible and more reliable... You asked about where.. I got my new one from www.wegenermedia.com; they had a clearance on the early dual ethernet units. I just went checked there: they're out of the early units (like I got), but they've
