A little background story to why I bought this router - maybe someone finds it useful... I'm connected to the citys fiber-lan via ethernet.and pays for 100Mb/10Mb downstream/upstream which cost me about 20/30$ a month. Pretty good deal I think. Only problem was I only got about 20Mb/20Mb ie 20% of the promised downstream, but curiously enough about 100% better upstream. I used a Netgear WGT624 router at the time, and after some research checking cabling and the citys switch, founding no faults, I decided to upgrade the routers firmware. The results was about 100% better! I got about 40Mb/36Mb. After research of reviews and such I decided to buy the DIR-655, mostly based on the very high througput on LAN. I don't use the WAN at the moment but I want the speed between computers and backup NAS to be as fast as possible. Guess what - with this router I now get as high speed as 94Mb/72Mb - I'm happy :) ****************************** * Dan Olsson * <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * <http://www.dolittle.se> _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
