Re: router setup

I'm waiting for a new time capsule. I got the 2012 version as a gift and it has never failed me. I stay connected to it for up to 1000 feet, and it is upstairs in a back corner. Kliph Sent from my mobile office On Oct 26, 2016, at 6:08 PM, Scott Granados wrote:

Re: router setup

Tim to go even more recent, the Apple Extreme still placed in the top 10 routers on PC Mag this year I believe. It’s an older AC 1300 design but still holds it’s own against many newer models. It’s not the most feature packed router in the world but as a basic router it’s fine and as an

Re: router setup

Hi, I'll chime in quickly here with some actual data, albeit dated. I recall some tests over 10 years ago where a number of these devices were tested against the Airport Extreme, and the Extreme won in pretty well all categories. Being that it was over 10 years ago,, things have changed

Re: router setup

Hi Scott and all, thanks for the router suggestions! I didn't even think about a web interface. I've heard really good things about the Netgear Nighthawk series, maybe I'll give one a try! Jeff On 10/25/16, Scott Granados wrote: > You might have smaller Wireless

Re: router setup

You might have smaller Wireless players or local players, I wouldn’t bother with DSL either, that’s last century’s technology. > On Oct 25, 2016, at 5:47 PM, E.T. wrote: > > Its been stable for some time, my email client used to complain quite > often. Then

Re: router setup

Its been stable for some time, my email client used to complain quite often. Then recently, it appeared my Charter email account was not behaving reliably. Will have to see how this merger goes. Interesting that my iCloud and gMail accounts worked fine. I have no other options here

Re: router setup

I was a charter cable member for all of one month because the service was substandard. I had the 125 meg down 25 up and the network seemed congested to me. Maybe with the merger things will improve. > On Oct 25, 2016, at 5:37 PM, E.T. wrote: > > Charter now

Charter now Spectrum. Standard Internet, think the slowest which still to me is overpriced. From E.T.'s Keyboard... Without H2O there is no life! ancient.ali...@icloud.com On 10/25/2016 2:35 PM, Scott Granados wrote: What type of service do you have off hand? Which provider? On Oct

Re: router setup

Ok yes makes sense. But then if I run a test from my provider it might look good while its actually on the low end of the speed dial so I may be a skeptic here. I think I will leave myself in the dark, what I do not know cannot hurt me. From E.T.'s Keyboard... Without H2O there is no

Re: router setup

You know things like that are hit and miss. You’re testing the whole network between you and the speed test server rather than the speed of any specific link so you might get some idea but it depends on network conditions and any number of things. If you used Comcast for example you might

Re: router setup

Scott, Is Speedtest.com a reliable way to measure performance? I am happy with the Netgear router but am curious to know if this site would provide meaningful data. From E.T.'s Keyboard... Without H2O there is no life! ancient.ali...@icloud.com On 10/25/2016 2:21 PM, Scott Granados

Re: router setup

Most routers are very doable from the web interfaces. The ones I’d suggest are the Netgear Nighthawk 7800 series or the DLink DIR-897/lr or Asus has an 88U model that is highly rated although I have not tried it’s web interface personally. Thanks Scott > On Oct 25, 2016, at 4:22 PM, E.T.

I bought a Netgear Nighthawk AC1900 earlier this year. Don't need software. Its quite doable from the web interface. From E.T.'s Keyboard... Without H2O there is no life! ancient.ali...@icloud.com On 10/25/2016 1:14 PM, jeff `greene wrote: Hi, Sorry in advance for the long post! My

router setup

Hi, Sorry in advance for the long post! My friend brought over his Linksus 5400 802.11AC router and I was blown away with the difference between his router and mine on my internet connection. For a long time he has been saying my Apple Airport Extreme is slow. So, I'm thinking about replacing my
