Need recommendations for a wireless router
View this Thread in Original format
corsten_addict
I am currently using an Apple Airport, with a few computers running on the wireless network.

I need to get a new wireless router.

These are the criteria that it must have:

1. Must be able to set a DMZ for at least one particular user (i.e. disable the firewall of the router) with minimal ease (i.e. NOT port mapping)

2. Be able to limit bandwidth of any particuclar computer running on the network.


Please help me - there's quite a few out there, and I need to know what my options are. I have BOTH PCs and Macs, and I don't think that compatability should be a problem.

I am fairly new to wireless routers, but I needed to get one without any prior knowledge and fast and ended up getting a Belkin. Since it was cheap, i figured why not. So far it works fine and I think it can do most those tasks...But I have no idea if its better than any other ones for this is the only one I have ever been exposed to.

If you're going wireless use the security built into the router, and beware of those war drivers. (war driving)

Go with Net Gear. It's a little more expensive than the others...I've had bad experiences with Linksys...
