I had one of those POS things. I replaced it with a D-Link. It works
much better.

As a scanner enthusiast I know better than to broadcast my computer
activity on a wireless system.

I have a Linksys BEFSR41 here (wired) If I leave it powered up, it makes
just about anything under about 8 Mhz unreadable S9+10 20 DB noise
level. In order for it to go away, I have to unplug the wall wart in order
to tune 160/80/40 M etc and expect to hear things.

I also have a friend who uses the Linksys wireless router, I am the person
he call if he needs help with it. As an aside, this wireless network
regularly supports downloads of 2.5 to 3 Mb/s (megabits/sec) or 300 to 400
KBs (Kilobytes/sec) which is the same as the wired computers on this smae
network get. The fact that some of the connections to the net are wireless
in NO WAY limits the speeds obtainable.
