Here's a good one:

Linksys SpeedBooster technology improves Wireless-G
performance up to 35% when a Wireless-G with
SpeedBooster router and Wireless-G with
SpeedBooster adapter are used together.
The same applies for Linksys Wireless-N, which
delivers up to 4X range improvement and
12X speed improvement when a Wireless-N Router
and Wireless-N Adapter are used together.

No mention that you might get the same 4x range improvement when you use wireless G with Wireless N.

(note: I edited line breaks and some html code in the above quote).
I believe it to be the same content as from the quoted page.

I thought I mentioned, 50 million posts ago, that I got better range with the N.. Laughing

... you guys enjoy your peppers.

Truthfully Joe? I don't care what type of answer any of us give, right OR wrong, you simply wouldn't like it unless we all agreed with you. You appear to be the expert so post away. This is why I won't waste any more time on the issue. I know what's right for me and what my tests have showed combined with the information I have received and I am happy with that. It seems all you want to do is pick everyone's posts apart. As my kids always said lol........whatever.

Forget the peppers Jim, I'm going for a New York steak tonight. Smile

This really isn't so much a technical forum as it is a bunch of folks, both experienced and inexperienced users alike, trying to help each other out.

That being said, if one is going to be so specific and bring correction and critique to each and every post then one might try to at least use spell check and maybe even squeeze in a little correct grammar now and then as opposed to just filling the pages with word after word? I'm not sure exactly what this "sentence" was trying to say? But then that's probably just me.

Note to admin: This is not intended to be a flame, or a personal attack. Since what I am about to say can be shown to be fact, I ask that you in all fairness, to allow the post to remain.

In would like to bow out of this issue unless anyone can provide any further technical information.

One tiny hint: buy a UPS, I like APC, and connect your router to the battery backup outlet and not the surge protection only outlet. Now if there is a power outage your connection will remain up and running. There should be enough power in even the smallest unit to keep you up for hours, maybe days?

If you use a laptop, this is particularly important since your laptop will continue running after the power outage.

This is why I will purchase the PHS300 this week, for the battery, even though it lacks some of the interesting features of its siblings.

Joe, The question you asked Cradle Point was NOT my claim to fame here. All I said and along with the clips from articles from Cisco is that you would benefit in range from N devices because of the mixed mode transmission even with a G device on the other end and yes MIMO will help and is an element of the draft N technology. You twisted all my words to suit your fancy.

All I said is you would see an increase in range even with G devices with the MBR1000 because it was an N device transmitting in the N (Mixed mode).

I never once claimed what you asked Cradle Point! Not once. It was not even the issue here. The ENTIRE issue was will you get increased range with the MBR 1000 because of the mixed mode of transmission because it is an N device utilizing MIMMO. You tore into all my posts and dissected them until there was nothing left to cut. You questioned my integrity and the authenticity of every one of my posts. Go back and look Joe. You tore the .... out of every post I made. It must be some kind of obsession or something? What you asked Cradle Point is NOT what I was saying! Now it's apparent you must have the last word in every conversation you have so I will give you that honor as I am QUITE sure you will tear this post apart too like all my others and you'll twist it to suit your fancy.

Me? I'm going back to lurking and reading here. It's much more productive. My apologies to the administrators and members. That was NOT my intent in the info I posted.

Bottom line what I was trying to say before I was attacked and dissected was you will see an increase in range with the MBR1000. That's it and plainly put yes you will Thank you.

I revoke the original question. Laughing

Thanks again to the two main posters in this thread - even though things got a bit heated it's nice to have a group of users who are helpful and passionate about the technology.

I am glad that I get an acceptable signal from the new router. Heck, I'll probably break down and spend the $ on a N card just to see how much stronger it gets! Razz
