RE: Wireless routers...

["White, Peter" <peter.white@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

That's almost a compliment, thanks Tim :-)

The problems seem to be restricted to the 2800VG's, and the support from
DrayTek was fairly woeful, just getting me to try various firmware flashes,
none of which were specifically released for this problem, which is well
documented (basically the wireless performance practically stops dead as
soon as there's any serious traffic).=20

I've yet to find a new wireless router that everyone seems to agree on. =

Oh bugger :-((
I was hoping the "poor performance" was from some numpties that
didn't
really know what they were doing, but having someone on here confirm it is
disappointing. Maybe I'm better off with a separate access point in that
case, there was a 3Com wireless router at ebuyer for =A325 recently...

All my wireless devices are "b" or "g" so moving over
to "a" would be a pai=
n
:-(

Cheers,

Tim.
