OPaul Posted July 19, 2003 Share Posted July 19, 2003 If you asking if they are all compatible, then yes, they are. You can use a PC card from one manufacturer with a wireless router from another manufacturer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean a Router + Switch + Wireless Access Point. linksys BEFW11S4 is a good example of that and does what you ask. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radioboy Posted July 20, 2003 Share Posted July 20, 2003 First, yes, any will work together as long as they're 802.11b As for a wired/wireless combo router, I have the D-Link 614+ and it works great. http://slickdeals.net/forums/showthread.ph...hp?threadid=641 OfficeDepot has the D-Link AirPlus? DI-614+ Wireless 2.4GHz Broadband Router for $25 after $30 rebates. 1. Add the Router for $70. 2. Apply coupon code 35179279 for $15 off $50. 3. Send $10 rebate (copy) & $20 rebate. Final price is $70 - $15 coupon - $30 rebates = $25 w/ free shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+BudMan MVC Posted July 20, 2003 MVC Share Posted July 20, 2003 damn, that sucked. i can't get that one for cheap. :( What do you consider cheap? Linksys Wireless Access Point 4-Port Cable/DSL Router 802.11b Our Price: $69.99 Price After Rebate: $59.99 And it says FREE shipping? This over at buy.com - googlegear has it for $67.95, and newegg $80 I would think that a router, 4 port switch and WAP for $60-80 a very reasonable price??
