Gone Wireless
September 22nd, 2002 by Larry Burton
Friday I picked up a wireless routher for the house. I bought the Belkin Wireless Cable/DSL Gateway Router because I could get it for under $100 after the rebate. I fully expected to have to bring it back because no one in the store could tell me that it worked with BellSouth’s IFITL brand of DSL. I’m happy to say that it works like a charm. I had no configuration problems and the only problems I ran into was trying to get the PPPoE drivers on my desktop machine from interferring with the network connection on that machine while I was trying to get things working. Those drivers are gone.
I haven’t had an opportunity to find what the range is but it works everywhere inside my house that I’ve tried it. I’ll start mapping out the boundries outside over the next couple of weeks. Much needed rain visiting us this weekend and predicted for next week make hold up the entry on that, though.
