Here's a Thai online order link for it. A bit pricey.

LINKSYS WRT610N DUAL 2.4/5 GHZ 4 PORT GIGABIT ROUTER 300 MBPS

Looks like a very nice router, though. Never seen it in a shop here.

Interference from other WIFI networks ?
 

Hi,

Been having problems with my home WIFI at home too. I eventually tried "Kismac" to see if there were any other networks around causing interference. Using Kismac, I detected 44 WIFI networks in range. As there are only 11 channels available in the UK, that means on average there would be 3 other people using any channel I chose.

Luckily, none of the 44 were using channel 1, so I switched to that. Problem solved.

Of the 44, 4 had no encryption at all, and 4 had WEP which can be cracked in around 10 minutes as demonstrated on Youtube.

Kismac - free download from:

http://trac.kismac-ng.org/

By the way, Kismac is illegal software in Germany, as described on their site.

Regards,

Nick

Thanks again all.

The WRT610N is not dual-band, though, I believe?

It is dual band.

Yup, sorry. Got my 160 and 610s mixed up.

That site has no stock and, to make matters worse, won't accept my email address.

My guess is that the 610 is not built for the Thai market, so availability might be problematic. You could try these guys:

Shop 4 Thai - Linksys by Cisco WRT610N Dual-N Band Wireless Router

I've bought stuff from them before. Note that their online stock availability information is not very reliable.

That KisMac si DITW in Lion.

Works fine here. It needs WiFi to be turned on.

Wifi is on?? Clicking the Start Scan did nothing??

Anyway, I ordered the E3200 from Invade. Tomas, the Danish proprietor, could not have been more helpful.

My only issue now, or when it arrives, will be extracting the dsl password from the current POS router. Obviously it is not in my keychain, so how can I get the router to give it up?

Tx,

Gavin

That probably just means that it didn't find any wireless networks. Is your router on with wireless on?

Is you Mac's WiFi on?

My router has an 'unmask' checkbox which reveals the ADSL password.

And, I just checked my keychain and the ADSL username and password are both there.

Yup, all on.

No unmask option. I'll call 3bb.

Not in KC either.

The best of luck to you! They are my ISP as well. Or, is it MaxNet, or Jasmine, or Triple T Broadband?

Gotit. That was pleasantly easy.

3bb. Asked them why we are less than dial-up speed ATM, too.

All I can say is:

ปากหวาน

No need - did it all in English. They seem to have recorded my number and they knew I wasn't Thai.

But, yes, they don't call me the Silver Tongued Devil... at all!
:-)

Just received the E3200 and set it up.

Will I be better off buying a dedicated modem, or staying with the original wireless modem router that the ISP supplied?

If you can manage, it would probably be best to put the modem in bridged mode and let the router do the PPPoE connection and all the routing.

PS - What kind of modem is it?

So, on the 3bb modem router, switch off DHCP and go from PPPoE to Bridge mode?

Then re-run the Cisco setup app?

It's a Billion BIPAC 5200G R4.
