Belkin Pre-N Wireless Router.............
 

I blew up my old router , no clue as why but anyways i bought this one.

Supposed to be ripe n tender. Ill report results.

Belkin is nice, hell of a lot easier to install then Linksys

yup very easier thank Linksys set up. Took less than 5 min.

is Pre-N wimax or just G/B/A ?

Plus Linksys isnt service pack 2 compatible, you cant find shit bout that on their sites. Belkin sposed to be low key but it works and software is a lot smoother as well.

Good pick :thumbsup

why would a router have to be SP2 compatible? its a layer to the internet ...

I have a pre-n belkin, and the pre-n card for the laptop. 100% strong signal anywhere in the house, the neighbors house, the pool, etc.. 800k sq foot of broadcast range.. No single loss, no speed loss.. just straight up fast. Even my desktops have pre-n cards. The router sits in my net ready closet, which is about 60 feet from my office. Nice security features too and easy to setup.

Tanker has a pre-n belkin also; he can sit on his balcony roof and doesn?t lose connection.

The Pre-N is amaizing juicy... I tested it at john's place.. the router is in the basement, and I went all the way to the back of his lot where the trees start, left side, my normal card was dead, the pre-n had 100% reception.

Ive had 2 belkin routers that gave me nothing but problems, constantly disconnecting for me, sometimes for 8 hours at a time.

Also has a belkin KVM switch that would randomly stop working with my keyboard and mouse.

IMO.. belkin cant do anything right =P

the pcmcia card isnt, the linksys software fucks up the sp2 wifi plugin, called linksys they said cant do tough luck

What exactly is this? An extra strong connection?

Sweet!! I was looking at one of those today to replace my pos linksys. Just came on here before I started to research it before I bought it, what a coincidence :thumbsup

here are the technical specs n stuff

Damn , having been to Jons house thats some good Range.

Pre-n is just a type of connection by Belkin, they aren't going to expand on it which sucks..

It's super strong, super fast and has huge ass broadcast range..

With my normal wireless nic cards I can only pick up 2 or 3 other networks, with the pre-n card I can pick up 10-20 more open networks.. One hell of a card and router.. A bit expensive but worth it.. I recommend you spend the money to get the pre-n nic cards too, normal nic cards and pre-n bitch at each other.

I can go 2 or 3 neighbors down, in the house, and the connection will hold.. You can drive a block away and the connection will hold.

Its basically just a higher frequency standard.. 802.11n .. uses more than one antenna, and higher frequencies to transmit data. But 802.11n is not yet a standard, its still in the works. Changes every day.. Belkin just took an old version of it, and released hardware that used it. Calls it Pre-N... One thing to remember with this stuff,, its very likely that different company Pre-N systems will not work together, and its also likely that final N products will not work with Pre-N. Of course, they are all compatible with the current standards so can fallback to them.

you guys do know that when N does eventually come out, this pre N wont be compatable with it at all right?

I have a Belkin pre-n (mimo) - best signal I have ever had. Also, a lot better than the Netgear crap I had before

same here, much better then any of linksys crap
