| | WZR-HP-AG300H fiasco Sorry Buffalo... after the complete and total fiasco that was your WZR-HP-AG300H product I flat out refuse to ever give you another shot ever again. You owed everyone who bought a WZR-HP-AG300H a refund and you literally did nothing to address or resolve the issue. When you grow up and act like a corporation we can talk again. Strong words, yes I know. Trust me, Buffalo deserves it on this one. When you herald a product as being able to do 30db 2.4 GHz and at best it does 12 - 14db and then totally ignore your own support forums of valid complaints.... yeah enjoy the kiddy-table Buffalo it will be some time before you are invited to the adult table again. | |

They announced 17 days ago it would hit the streets this month. Possibly helpful: Arstechnica ditty and Netgear's specs page. Anyone seen this broadcom SoC yet?
Sooo, how many early adopters will get a rude awakening about the number of 802.11b/g devices on or frequently visiting their LAN? | |

| | | | Re: WZR-HP-AG300H fiasco I built a router with a Shuttle XG41 and pfSense running on VMWare ESX 5.0 and could not be happier. My ASUS RT-N56U is only the WAP now and not the router and my performance is through the roof now. Getting 100% of what my ISP is providing now. I even considered the ASUS RT-N56U a GREAT replacement for the crappy Buffalo WZR-HP-AG300H I had prior to it, but there is bandwidth all consumer routers seem to be leaving on the table waiting to be utilized. It took me going to pfSense (or M0n0wall if you like) for me to realize it though. Sure I would consider this an advanced set up. But for me it was worth the setup time 100%. | |

| OH NOES!!! WiFI makers yet again releasing "PRE" standard equipment 
So we will see a few (maybe, if we are lucky) good models and a huge number of junk Pre-ac/ac almost models released, once again fragmenting the market and polluting the freq's while we wait for actual APPROVED standard devices.
IEEE standards commitees are such a clusterfuck. | |

| Re: OH NOES!!! One really does wonder what the point of these devices is considering they cost as much or more than the top tier current generation devices in their quality segment do and you gain no tangible benefit now and possibly later for moving to their model right now. | |

| | | | Re: OH NOES!!! yeah. let sell draft router. oh and sorry to tell not support when it is official release . you will have to pay us again for that one | |

time after time they all pledge to wait, and when "someone" chooses to violate they do nothing. | |

| | 5Ghz and Wireless ISP This product right out of the gate is going to have issues. As a wireless ISP we already use
unlicensed spectrum to get the Internet to our subscribers. 2.4Ghz is already a disaster and we tired of interference complaints of competing with cordless phones, home access points and lots of other devices.
The new complete use of all spectrum devices is going to be a disaster for individuals who don't realize what is already out here.
The FCC won't open up new unlicensed areas to operate and eventuality will make all unlicensed useless.
Somebody is going to get hurt and will continue to wonder who? | |

| Fast... but let's see how far. Yet to be seen is the range of 5 GHz inside the household. The higher the frequency, the more it's attenuated by obstacles in the path-- doors, walls, and floors/ceilings (in multi-story homes).
If you remember the days of 46/49 MHz cordless phones, we could walk halfway down the block and still use them. Our 5.8 GHz phones today will barely reach out into the driveway. | |

Thats' why you should be using the DECT 6.0 phones which use the 1.9GHz frequency. | |

| Re: Fast... but let's see how far. Actually.... »www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···76105232
I bought this kit about 6 months ago because our 5.8 GHz phones didn't have as much security and I was concerned about leaking personal info like SSNs and credit card numbers into the air.
They still don't have anywhere near the range of my old 46 MHz phone, though. | |
