I just did a speed test with my ethernet plugged directly into my cable modem and it was up around 9000 kbps; when I go through my router its closer t0 6000. Is that normal? Should I get a new router? What should I get? I'm on a Mac.

look into, it might be a brand thing.
- Rand0
yeah, I did that, but none of them are my brand, which is no longer made. Do you think an older router might be a problem? What would be a good new one?

unix based linksys are the best in my opinion
up to (W)RT v4 (wireless or not) after that it uses a proprietary crap system that stalls and drops you for no reason
then netgear
then belkinor maybe reverse those but those are my top 3

how much porn do you need?
kidding, but i would also suggest linksys as v4 stated

my computer is hardwired to the router; my wireless basestation is as well

not to hi-jack this thread or anything (yeah sorry) but tara, you got any info on short term sublet places for nyc for september? me and the girl are going out there for 10 days and figured it would be cheaper than going with a hotel. can you email me with any info if you got some? thanks!
sorry rand, i fucked this up. i think you got adequate info anyway though? if not i will punch myself. i don't really like pain :*(
