Which wireless type of network are you running at home?
Would it also be possible to mention if it's secure & how (WEP 64/WEP 128/WPA/WPA2/etc.) ?
Feel free to mention the brand & models of the equipment you're using. |

Draktek Vigor 2600 VG. WEP 64 bit - but then I have nobody nearby and anybody in a car is going to stick out like a sore thumb around here!

128bit WPA. Some cheap Belkin that I bought as a temp replacement when my Linksys died. Turns out its working just fine for me so I haven't bought a better one.

Linksys WRT54GS w/WPA. I had used WPA2 for a little bit, but it didn't seem to be well supported by Windows XP.

I might as well add my contribution:
I'm using an Apple Airport Extreme (firmware 7.2.1) in draft-n mode & WPA2. |

I still need more info & it seems this thread disappeared a bit too fast.

I seem to have missed this one - I use a Draytek Vigor 2600 which is connected for wired and wireless. Works a treat. WEP 64 bit only.

Maybe I should make it a sticky for a little while (don't forget to vote on the pole while you're at it).

G is the standard for most and some have N. I still use G54 twin access points for coverage. I know network guys who swear by N, but I don't see the point. 300Mbps gain which is really 240Mbps and like those with 108-125mbps for G54.

I'm using a Linksys 802.11 G router. (WRT54GX4)
I'm using WEP encryption, would use WPA but that would cause my father to become confused and get angry with me... he doesn't like change. ![]() |

I am still on a Wireless B Linksys router. Have not had a reason to change. (Now watch, I have probably jinxed my old router and will find problems when I get home...)

Oh, I forgot: I do not use WPA at this time. I tried it a few years ago and it seemed to cause me all kinds of connection problems.

Linksys WRT54GL running DD-WRT, with WPA and mac filtering.
Was hoping that it would suffice for use with a wireless gaming rig, but can't process the packets fast enough, so it laggs every now and again even after upgrade to light-weight DD-WRT. (Could also have something to do with the 20 other 802.11b/g networks in my building....) Curious, what are you going to use this info for? War-driving in the us? ![]() |
