New Router for Gamers
« on: April 11, 2005, 02:29:39 PM »
We have all been there, you are running along in your favorite FPS, and you spot your favorite target, that newbie who just doesn't seem to learn.

  You take aim as he begins to turn and know that in a moment you will be adding another frag to your score and that newbie will again be respawning.

  You push the button and fire the rounds that will seal the newbies doom and suddenly...  You are forced to respawn, the newbie actually fragged you!

"Dude, why didn't you fire?" you hear over the headset which is connected to the communications server on the Internet, "You just stood there and I thought for sure you were going to frag me!"

You check the bandwidth on your connection, and it appears that your wife/sister/brother/roomate/parents are downloading something and sucking all the bandwidth from you.

Don't you just hate that?

D-Link now has a router just for you... n1c!

here is a link to the product: http://games.dlink.com/products/?pid=370&#DGL-4300
here is a link to a review of the product: http://www.viperlair.com/reviews/misc/net/dlink/dgl4300/

Zoë: Shepard, isn't the Bible kind of specific about killing?
Book: Very specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzy around the area of kneecaps.

The price?



Check link at NewEgg.Com

$143.00US -> unit
$.99US  --> shipping
$143.99 --> total

Take $20US off for removing the wireless.

For a wireless router with all these features, including Gb on the LAN, that is a CHEAP price!

Looks Like Opie Could use the non-wireless version, or just REMEBER to turn off his WIRLESS CARS!!!

Nice Price I might need to get me one!
No matter how hard you try to push the envelope, remember it's only stationary.
