Re: [WISPA] 802.11 a, b, g booster
Personally I prefer the Buffalo WHR-HP-G54. It's more powerful, more sensitive and more stable. I've used a number of them. I normally use the Tomato firmware if I'm using them as APs or WDS APs. In that role they seem to have better performance (throughput) with the Tomato firmware versus the dd-WRT. The Tomato firmware does very good QoS. Today I just had the need to have one be a client to a Nanostation and I found that the Tomato software wouldn't connect as client (to any AP). I had to put on dd-WRT and use the client bridge mode. I'm using the WHR-HP-G54 in this case because I need the switch ports for a number of devices. But if I was just expanding the network I think I'd use Nanostations or Picostations in WDS.

Re: [WISPA] 802.11 a, b, g booster
I used those WRE54's before they were G and they were horrible (poor range, frequent crashes). Maybe they're better now.

I bet you could purchase them in larger orders for cheaper to resell though. But it plugs straight into the outlet... small form factor. Not 802.11a though.

I helped a friend with a D-Link DIR-655 yesterday and was shocked/disgusted to find that although it HAD supported bridge mode in firmware 1.05, this feature was removed in 1.10+ and of course it wouldn't accept the older firmware as an upgrade. Must be some way but a $90 router is only worth so much tinkering. On Tue, Apr 28, 2009 at 10:03 AM, Josh Luthman j...@imaginenetworksllc.comwrote: Dlink has been pretty stable for me.

It doesn't appear the DIR-655 supports tftp firmware flashing. Too bad, that might have been a way to revert to the older firmware. Another reason to say with the more open source Linux based boxes.

Re: [WISPA] 802.11 a, b, g booster
Buffalo gear was very hard to find in the US for the last few years, due to the legal action against them. I see that was changed in December, and you can buy Buffalo wifi gear again. Has anyone used the WHR-G300N? That one is draft N, plus you can load dd-wrt on it (I think that is unusual for N routers) About $50 at Newegg http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833162026 On Apr 28, 2009, at 10:57 AM, os10ru...@gmail.com wrote: Personally I prefer the Buffalo WHR-HP-G54. It's more powerful, more sensitive and more stable. I've used a number of them. I normally use the Tomato firmware if I'm using them as APs or WDS APs. In that role they seem to have better performance (throughput) with the Tomato firmware versus the dd-WRT. The Tomato firmware does very good QoS. Today I just had the need to have one be a client to a Nanostation and I found that the Tomato software wouldn't connect as client (to any AP). I had to put on dd-WRT and use the client bridge mode. I'm using the WHR-HP-G54 in this case because I need the switch ports for a number of devices. But if I was just expanding the network I think I'd use Nanostations or Picostations in WDS.

Re: [WISPA] 802.11 a, b, g booster
Maybe I am just missing something here but why in the world would you want to buy a bunch of SOHO routers and re-flash them to another OS? I have seen this thread before on here and didn't have time to ask the reason. I have no time to mess with taking every unit out of a box and flash and test then reseal it and go to the next. I buy 20 Trendnet SOHO 802.11G basic routers for $28 each and drop them in the trucks. Never had a bad one, they all come with a 5ft cable and just work. If a customer wants a router then they pay $45. If they need better distance than I get them a N router later. Last thing I want to do is mess with them all. Heck I hate programming radios. I am working on a plan to just stack Tranzeo's in the truck and upload the config from the laptop. DLink = Lock up all the time at lease the WBR-1310, 30 min no power to reset. Have a pile in back room Linksys = WRT54G ok but had 20 die in one month right at 2 years Buffalo = was good all but the WHR-G125(junky design poor signal) didn't know was available again. Trendnet = 130+ in field no return very few calls require reset. TPLink = Good High power unit very adjustable only used 10 so far. Good USB wireless Adapter as well.

Re: [WISPA] 802.11 a, b, g booster
Agreed. For a freebie router that's just to give a customer wireless it's not worth the bother. But if you have to do WDS on the customer side or if the user is a special client/family/friend and you are trying to do something a little different or special the other firmwares sometimes offer features that are necessary.

Re: [WISPA] 802.11 a, b, g booster
Here is the Linksys solution: http://www.linksysbycisco.com/US/en/products/WRE54G Looks like its $100 MSRP... I bet you could purchase them in larger orders for cheaper to resell though. But it plugs straight into the outlet... small form factor. Not 802.11a though.

Re: [WISPA] 802.11 a, b, g booster
I don't recall... it's been probably a year and a half since I screwed around with it. I do know that it was pretty easy to setup (just put in the wireless network info basically and off you went).

Re: [WISPA] 802.11 a, b, g booster
I wouldn't count on a discount from a reseller like Newegg... go to one of the distributors like Ingram Micro... there are four options: http://www.linksysbycisco.com/US/en/wheretobuy When I had my own company as a side job thing I had an account with a disty (I can't recall who) so I could get better pricing on D-link gear... made it so I could sell it much cheaper to my end users (granted Best Buy et.

Re: [WISPA] 802.11 a, b, g booster
I have found Ingram Micro to be more expensive than Newegg every time, with the exception of that 5% off we got. This is only on Linksys gear, we have had too many problems with D-Link, Netgear, Belkin etc We standardized on only selling the WRT54GL anymore. Charge the customer $90 installed, we'll replace it and handle the RMA during the first year. Once we explain that we've found these to be the best bang for the buck most customers will purchase them. -Kevin. -Original Message- From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of 3-dB Networks Sent: Monday, April 27, 2009 1:36 PM To: 'WISPA General List' Subject: Re: [WISPA] 802.11 a, b, g booster I wouldn't count on a discount from a reseller like Newegg... go to one of the distributors like Ingram Micro... there are four options: http://www.linksysbycisco.com/US/en/wheretobuy When I had my own company as a side job thing I had an account with a disty (I can't recall who) so I could get better pricing on D-link gear... made it so I could sell it much cheaper to my end users (granted Best Buy et.
