Best Router to buy???? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Breny · 09-30-2007, 06:52 PM

So I'm thinking that maybe the router I bought just sucks??? I bought a Belkin G+ Mimo and the darn thing works hit or miss. Sometimes the desktop works, sometimes it don't. Sometimes my laptop works...sometimes it don't. I'm tired of it. Maybe its just a crappy router?

Whats the best one out there?

I have a netgear (sp?) and never messed up on me... It's not even hooked up to anything but the modem box and still my laptop and the desktop is getting perfect reception.. But I am looking at getting a wireles card from verizon wireless... I need the internet EVERYWHERE! you know what i'm saying?

Didn't I warn you against buying a Belkin router? Or was that someone else that I talked to? I had a TERRIBLE time with the router itself, as well as their tech support department that is located in Sri Lanka, and it's very hard to understand many of the people over the phone, as their accents are very thick, and there is a 2 second delay when talking with them! I tried everything with that stupid router, I called every number on the box, until I finally decided that it wasn't ME, but the router was defective! The cord kept falling out of the plug in in the back of it! They wouldn't replace it, and didn't offer much help past that, so I finally called the place I bought it and returned it for store credit.

My sister's boyfriend fixes computers. He told me to go with Lynxis. But instead he just gave me his "old" (one year old, but he wanted more range) one and it works perfectly.
