  This is a great modem/router - I own myself since 1.5 years. Bought it in 2010 for $149. Great speed and coverage.

  one question: what would happen if I connect a mix of wireless G (my flatmate) and wireless N (me) devices to it? Would I still get wireless N speed while he gets only Wireless G speed?

    yeah each device negotiates best speed given its signal and protocal.

    Fix #3: Don't Connect Draft 11n and 11b/g clients to the same router

    An 802.11n router can also work with 802.11g and even 11b devices. But these much slower devices force the router to slow down to talk to them, which means a big throughput hit. Fortunately, the "legacy" mechanisms are pretty efficient and reduce throughput only when the slower devices are actively transmitting or receiving.

    As we showed in Add, Don't Replace When Upgrading to 802.11n, mixing 11n and "legacy" clients can reduce throughput by 50 to 80%. So if you are mixing old and new devices, you could be shooting yourself in the (throughput) foot. Either upgrade to all 11n clients, or use a separate 802.11g router to handle your "legacy" stuff.

    I was talking to some geek guys about this very question yesterday & it seems that even 1 slower device slows the whole WAP down for every device, regardless of what is possible on that device. So even 1(for e.g.) user with a 'b' device could slow an 'n' router to little better than 'b' speeds!
    Maybe you could keep an older WAP for your flatmate, with their MAC addresses set for that one & your MAC addresses on the 'n'? Don't know if it would help.

  How does this compare with Billion 7800N (apart from the price!)?

  • 

    Store Repi-techcomau @ i-Tech on 17/08/2011 - 16:54

    i believe the 7800N also comes with glan, while this one is 10/100

  The title is misleading. $10 discount only applies to orders over $100.

    Store Repi-techcomau @ i-Tech on 17/08/2011 - 16:56

    Sorry about the misunderstanding. We are offering $10 discount for orders over $100, but we didn't want to post a new deal for this, and the title bar is limited. Hence we could only put it on the description.
