I'm still telling people to go out and buy the older 802.11b Linksys routers, they are usually on sale for less than 50 bucks and they work great.
Next time I set up a home network I am hoping something better than g will be around. I don't know if the performance increase justifies the price. |

If you want a really simple way to expand the range on a wireless network, get one of these:
Wireless G Range Expander Hmm. Doesn't help with the TV though. |

I just got the airport express, and it rocks!!! Apple products just seem so streamlined. I can print from anywhere in my house! Hopefully I will soon have itunes working wirelessly. I'm sitting in front of the tv on the internet right now. I tried going wireless with a pc device twice with no luck. Maybe I'm just a moron, but the mac stuff is great so far. I guess whatever works will be best. Mac stuff is expensive, but the pc stuff I have gotten has been of pretty poor quality. I dont' think you'll be sorry if you go with the airport.

If its available you better snap it up quick, there is questions at the FCC about retransmitting a TV or cable signal. Many stations have restrictions on that and it could put you in direct violation. Not trying to be an idea killer, but I would get it now while you can before they rip them from the market. |

FCC doesnt regulate under a certain distance of rebroadcasting....thats why you can run repeaters and such, as long as you dont interfere with your neighbors tv set..... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
