I came home to a fried network. I think something has happened to my router. It keeps dropping out and I've played with all the buttons and wires.

We all have Netgear adapters and so I was planning on getting another Netgear router. Anyone have one they particularily love? Any other advice on routers?

I'm having decent luck with a Dlink extreme N router...although I occasionally have to connect manually after the computer's been off

My computer tech nerd friend swears by linxus or however you spell it

My 1st router was a D-Link, I think, & I believe I fried that one myself by mistakenly swapping the power cord from the modem 2nd one was Linksys, lasted a little longer than the dlink...I got a Trendnet router now, bought just before CompUSA went down for the count; one thing I kinda like about this is that it came with a free trial for Network Magic - I liked it enough to pay $30 to keep it, keeps all the puters connected better than I've ever able to before.

I've had the most luck with Billion and Linksys gear for home use. I used to have to support D-Link routers in a job I had a few years ago and we used to joke that it stood for Dead-Link. I've known a couple of people with bad Netgear experiences but no definitive yea or nay for Netgear.

not sure..and Netgear that said it was compatible with my adapters. It's faster than the old on I had but with 4 other puters on the wireless it's still slow.

Have you got yours encrypted yet? I haven't done mine yet, but anytime I lose connection for a while I always find a couple of neighbors' signals coming in, at low levels of course. If you don't block out the neighbors, they can piggyback on yours & slow it down even more...not to mention hack into your system if they're so inclined...

Even though our Techie Goddess has fixed her problems I am compelled to add that my opinion of Netgear products is not particularly favorable. In my experience, they don't play well with others. Linksys and D-link have served me well.

I have netgear adapters so Mr. Lil figured we should stick with what has worked in the past.
