I currently have Sky's broadband with the router (Sagem) connected to the phone line in the lounge downstairs. It's then connected via homeplugs to my old netgear wireless ethernet router that was used for VM cable in old house.
Got two PCs and a 360 plugged in to that via ethernet and also PS3/netbook via wireless. Currently have the wireless disabled on the sky router since I'm worried that ps3 linking to that wouldn't be able to stream from the netgear connected pcs?
Looking for advice on a replacement for the netgear as it gets really hot and requires a reboot any time I try to refresh my favourites/history server list in CSS!
Had that problem occur on cable in old house but only when trying to refresh the massive internet list. Favourites/History are lucky if they have more than 10 servers in.
Should I get another router or a switch, any reliable ones you know of? Is there a way to make the devices on the secondary router/switch appear on the sky routers ip range?. (Bridged?)
Cheers.
Edit: Oh, I should mention that if I connect sky router straight to my PC (via homeplugs) I can refresh the server lists fine but that tends to annoy the gf since she loses access to farmville...
