So guys i am setting up a lan with the following
1: 8 laptops
2: 1 mobile phone that sends an SMS
3: 8 printers (ethernet ports, RJ-45 cables)
So basically i have tested two routers and have remarkably different results
DLink Router
- printers print immediately on request
- SMS triggers immediately
- laptops crash and disconnect at times...
My router from my internet service provider
- printers have a 10 second delay before printing
- SMS does not even trigger
- no crashing, haven't had a single disconnection
So why such different results, and considering the above setup could anyone recommend a sturdy router? I have been thinking of going for a Linksys, people generally have their iffies with Dlink, but linksys semes pretty solid across the board....thoughts??
