Assuming the following :
1. nowire (menlyn) would get off their backsides, respond to my emails and/or come do a signal test
2. signal quality is fine
3. this post is not too much off topic
it's time to do some planning:
Looking to put in a wireless router, connecting 3 machines (1 laptop, 2 pc) and possibly a printer. Distance not a huge factor so fixed/removable attennas might not be important. Connections would probably be as follows :
Mywireless to router - ethernet
Printer to router - usb
pc to router - ethernet
(kids) pc to router - internal pci wireless or external usb wireless (need to get them out of my study [
]
laptop to router - pcmcia or external usb wireless
Anything I should be looking out for ? Brandnames to stay away from ? Been looking at the article in SACM April edition, so I'll probably base my decisions on that as well
Again, if I've strayed too far with this post, apologies
