Steven Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 I'd like your opinion. Also, do you guys know any good sites I could go to to learn more about routers ? CISCO is the BEST IMO for Enterprise Level. For Home Use, I like their Linksys Division. (Y) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lsdn Posted October 3, 2003 Author Share Posted October 3, 2003 I didn't said I want a large router. I just want to purchase a small router (5 ports) for home (connecting my 2 PCs to my cable modem) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Sanders Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 As far as enterprise level goes, all my company puts in is Cisco. But when it comes to personal networks i am a BIG fan of D-Link routers. They are highly configurable, yet simple at the same time, as well as effecient.

mrogers Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 Linksys products are great. I also have some Netgear wireless routers, and I have been very happy with them as well. Netgear or Linksys, you can't go wrong. Just avoid D-Link and Microsoft routers. Seen many problems with those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liar2 Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 For home use, I'd probably go with a d-link or netgear. I'm a bit weary of linksys products due to the heat issues. Those things get damn hot! I mean, they work and all, but a lot of times, they'll cut out because of the heat. I'm a pretty big fan of d-link myself, but that's just personal preference.

bangbang023 Veteran Posted October 3, 2003 Veteran Share Posted October 3, 2003 Linksys are great and my experience with MS networking gear also shows their stuff to be pretty damn good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BassX Posted October 5, 2003 Share Posted October 5, 2003 ZyXEL ROCKS!:boo: wop..... wooo.... eehh... I'd have to agree with memNOC. ZyXel probably makes the best routers for advanced Home/SOHO purposes. But Linksys, Netgear, and D-link are more than capable for most home users. I have a Linksys SX41 with 4 computers and it works perfect for my needs. It does get a little hot from time to time - just make sure you don't stack anything on top of it. If you have $500 you want to drop on a home router - go for a Cisco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
