my friend has a very large house, he gets very weak wireless g over most of the house but wants a good signal everywhere...

What I want is a good (up to £100ish - budget is not fixed however) wireless N ADSL router, but a lot seem to only be draft (and I cannot help think just N would prove to be more stable and compatible)...

I also need a 2nd box to repeat the signal to cover the hole house..

I have a preference to use two ADSL routers of the same make/model for the setup as I feel (but may be wrong) its likley to work better if the kit is identical..

thanks for any suggestions..
 
usually one router can pick up the signal from the other and repets it, i have done it on several wireless g setups - ie one router connects to the ADSL, the other has nothing connected to its ADSL port and just sits the other side of the house repeating the signal

I know exactly the routers i would use for wireless g but this needs wireless N....

If anyone could suggest a good wireless N adsl router thats all I really need

thanks,
 
Draft n is the official n standard as no changes where made when it became standard but more companies have not had time to update their products yet. Your probably better running two cable routers flashed with dd-wrt i run a linksys wrt320n as main and dlink dir-615 as a repeater and they work perfect.
 
Netgear DG834GT with DGteam as modem
Netgear WNR3500L with Tomato as Router

You can use tomato to boost the transmit power and therfore get really good range!
 
Joining 2 routers together

Hello all,

We are about to move house and i want to increase the wireless bubble with the equipment i already have, is there an easy way to do this with the following equipment. I have a little I T know how but i think this will be a challenge.

Equipment set up :-

1 x Belkin N model F5D8236-4 V1 Router. I have this attched to the Virgin modem at present.

1 x Netgear model WGT624 v3 108Mbps Router. This is the router that i would like to attch to the Belkin in order to stretch the coverage. I have managed to hard wire them together but what i want really is to have no wires between them. I may hardwire another desktop into the Netgear router if i get the right setup.

Any advice and a step by step guide would be gladly appreaciated?

Many thanks

Carl.
