a.) i have used a dlink router and wireless card for a while, and it worked okay, but i wasn't crazy about it...so i went and bought the wrt54g router...and love it...

b.) if you're gonna buy the wrt54gs router and then only buy the g wireless card...i would suggest it b/c you're not getting your money's worth from the router....

c.) compatibility issues...no...i have the wrt54g router at home and when i go stay with my mom during the week her boyfriend has the wrt54gs router...and i'm on it right now...so no problems...

best advice...either get the 54g w/ speedboost router and card or get the 54g router and card...

definately linksys.

My friend bought a D-LINK DI-624 and it was dropping out constantly. My friend also barely got any signal and he was only about 30-40ft away from the router. I had to build him a cantenna so that the signal would be strong enough to not get disconnected all the time.

      All these CEOs got the biggest boners thinking about firing employees for AI. Turned out it was just a wet dream.

      And the fact that the majority of people from Poland are white European Christians while the people you are complaining about in post after post are not is just a coincidence... Every sentence in your post I am replying to is racist nonsense. None of it is actually based on any facts whatsoever. All immigrants are seeking a better life too. It's literally the only reason they would risk everything and leave their homes, families, and homeland. They are working and contributing to the economy too, as you even admit. They get the same benefits your partner did AND that YOU are eligible for as well. That is one of the key things of the EU and a mark of a civilization. That is the definition of a society where everyone is given a chance, treated equally and fairly, and is judged by the content of their character, not their different skin color or which version of ignorant superstitious nonsense their parents lied about as children. Racists around the world said the same things about the Irish and Jews and Poles (like your partner) and...every other immigrant movement over the centuries. What's your family's heritage, by the way? Were your ancestors lied about with racist fearmongering crapola by self-entitled locals the same way as you are now? If someone like that said the same things about all people from Poland, like your partner, would they be right? Or would you want them to judge your partner based on who they actually were, not where they just happened to come from?

      Again, this is an irrelevant attempt to attack the messenger. The truth does not require any justification.
