I live in a 1 Bedroom Apartment and my Wireless Router is like 4 Feet away from my Wii... I bought it yesterday and I hooked it up today...Everything worked fine for about an hour then I couldn't connect to the internet or with the Wii... I am going to take this Router Back...Please could Someone PLEASE Tell me a GREAT Wireless Router for a Cheap Price that will WORK with my Nintendo Ds, Nintendo Wii, and my PSP??? Please Someone post your ideas on what is worth the Money because I have no Clue about buying a Wireless Router that is Stable... We have a Desktop computer that our OLD Router from SBC gave us for DSL to start...I don't have a Wireless card in my Desktop because the Router is Directly connected into it connected via Ethernet cable... Please Help us...ASAP Thank You
Did you toy with the router configuration to make sure you have the correct settings? For one: Nintendo recommends that your wireless router be set to channel 1 or 11 to correctly communicate with the Wii.
iv had a DLINK wireless router from pcworld it was on offer so i thought ill give it a go, i set it up worked great for 1 day then next day my laptop wouldn’t connect to it so i gave DLINK a call they gave me instruction on what i should to fix the problem, but it did not resolve the problem they said i should return it to pcworld. so i did, the guys down there said it was to do with my microwave and my cordless phone and they said they wouldn’t sell me another router i was really annoyed with them. next day i went online and looked up a NETGEAR wireless package, ordered it, came in the post next day, set it up, and has worked like a charm ever since in every part of my big house no dead spots no problems. Shows what the pc world staff know about wireless routers! So I would recommend a netgear wireless router or a belkin as iv heard from my cousin there quite good is well.
..from my experience, lots... for example - http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_jump.cfm/382807/2298846 and possibly other posts further down that thread too..
yes i was, for MANY months and using more than 1 Belkin router. The only thing i trust by Belkin are their (old style) KVM switches, i had at least 3 bits of separate Belkin equipment that gave me immense intermittent problems, as detailed in that link, so i never recommend Belkin, there are far better makes out there such as Linksys, D-Link, Netgear etc, for the same money..
