Mekrel Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 (edited) Heh I was going to recomend a NETGEAR router, they are fantastic.Having a standalone PC I only use the DG632 but Ive never had any problems, and my brother also has the DG814 which had teething problems at first but the latest firmware which was quickly released has sorted all the problem out and never had 1 disconnect since.I love the 632 though, so small and great looking and the admin panel is so easy to use. Had problems with Punkbuster and torrents in the past but just forwarded the ports and everything is brilliant.

Wicket20519 Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 *Shoots Linksys router*/Dead/BuriedI've noticed with my Netgear router that whenever I turn my computer on I don't get the "Acquiring Network Address" message anymore.Perhaps....who else said they had that "Acquiring Network Address" problem? Are you/were you by any chance using a Linksys router? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zxian Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 *gasp*Sacrilidge!!!And as for the "Acquiring Network Address" problem I was having, it was because I had disabled the NLA service. Chilifrei confirmed this for me. Ever since I turned the service back on, I haven't had this problem at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a pair of them, actually, one doing my routing and one setup as a wireless bridge. I have the bridge box in the living room on the wall behind the 61" and run my ethernet cables from my PS2 and XBox for online gaming. Works *excellent*, if I do say so myself!Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
