id6230 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I would like to suggest that you should refrain from getting a mental set of "looking for the best". As you might very well know already, technology is constantly improving on a day to day basis. Lots of companies are doing their R & D every minute. What you can actually try to gauge and evaluate is what is the best you can get for the price you are willing to pay for at the given time you are needing the gadget. Quote Link to comment

Burger Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 the older standard routers that works for the present laptops now can cost around 1.1k sa CDR king, or 1550 tp link rounter sa gilmore. Quote Link to comment
Guest Leviticus Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 (edited) I have two wifi routers.. linksys wrt54g (hehe.. I'm typing this from memory so pasensya na if I get it wrong) and a tplink TL-WR542G. funny.. the TPlink brand is cheaper than the linksys and dlink. between the two I prefer the TPlink better. I use it at our office, may wifi signal hanggang sa labas and across the street. yung linksys kasi ang daming features pero hindi ko naman nagagamit since naka dynamic connection ako. mabuti sana kung naka static IP ako.. anyway.. masmalaki kasi ang antenna ng TPlink as compared to the linksys router kaya siguro masmalayo ang signal. oo nga pala, one factor that hinders wifi signal is the metal inside your walls. pero may I suggest that you also get a wireless access point to increase the distance of your signal. hindi masyado effective kasi ang mga range extenders. in my case hindi kaya ng wifi router to provide signal in a 4-storey dorm/house. kailangan ko pa ng WAP Edited June 6, 2008 by Leviticus Quote Link to comment

HARDBODM Posted June 9, 2008 Author Share Posted June 9, 2008 mga mtc gurus whats the difference of G and N series? How come masmahal ang N series? Mas high tech po ba ito? 15 to 20 meters away ang house ko from my other house which i plan to wifi and 3 walls in total ang pagitan, what do you think is best for me? Do i also need to buy the booster or receiver po? thanks! Quote Link to comment
Fusarium_jimini Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 ask ko lang kung established na yung N-standard? kasi yung mga available na router N-draft lang e..sayang kung bibili ako coz balita ko this year na ilalabas yung N-standard.. Quote Link to comment
bayobayo Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 N type has a stronger signal compared to G type routers.pero kailangan N type din and wifi card ng PC.I even heard na tagos daw sa wall ang signal ng N type but I have not tested it personally Quote Link to comment
