What people think about 1360 D DAP Link
It came in the mail yesterday and I had it up and running in about 15 mins. So installation gets 5 stars. And it definitely works as an extender as I am now getting full signal strength upstairs in my bedroom while the router is in the far corner of the basement. All appeared to be good until I started to do more than surf the internet. I couldn’t hold a connection to my company’s VPN and I kept losing connection when I tried to download podcasts to itunes. I unplugged it and I haven’t seen the problem since, so it has to be the extender causing the issue. It not only causes a problem with my laptop upstairs, but any computer on the network. The D-Link forum has several complaints with the same issue, but D-link has yet to respond to these complaints. The closest I saw to a recommended fix was in their Knowledgebase – they recommended changing the “Preamble” setting to “short” (default is “long”) for busy networks or for downloading large files. I will try this when I get home tonight and see if this corrects the issue.
UPDATE: 5/26/2010 – I switched the Preamble to “short” and that did nothing to solve my problem. Back to the ol’ drawing board! Next stop, tech support. Ugh!
UPDATE: 6/3/2010 – I emailed customer support a week ago and have heard nothing. Also, they have failed to respond to their own customer forum regarding this same issue. Lame, very lame. They leave me no option but to return this item.

Wanna WN321G LINK TP Wireless
I have used this for about two months now and it has seen some 10 degree mornings. Seems to keep working well, although the heart rate monitor cuts out once your sensors dry from the cold.
