This is supposed to be a long range router for large homes or offices. I would be curious to see some benchmarks on how it measures up against D-Link, Cisco, Netgear, Buffalo, Trendnet, etc... for range and speed.
Does anyone know of a good resource for recommended quality-of-service settings for your router? I've never really needed them because I haven't had situations where they would be needed but recently it's becoming an issue.
I can add computers and devices to the DCTP Rexervations, but if it is not in the list it will not connect. I can reboot the router and the device will work for a few mintues, but then it quits out. One weird thing is that the device will have an IP address like 192.168.100.179 but the DHCP IP range is only set to 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.199. I just got the Google Nexus one and regardless if I add it to the DHCP reverve list or not, it will not connect, it will have an ip address...

So I just picked up this router on Newegg and set it up. I've noticed that I have really good speed (via speedtest.net) when I use the "Mixed 802.11g & 802.11b" settings. (Around 14-15Mbps, which is what I have from my ISP). However, once I try to throw N into the equation, (either Mixed 802.11g & 802.11n, 802.11n only, or Mixed 802.11n, 802.11g, & 802.11b) the speed suffers to as low as 2-4Mbps. I'm trying to use the current settings: Mixed 802.11n & 802.11g...
