[09:14] <BrainDeadGamer> i need some help with buying a router

[09:14] <xBlueXFoxx> D-link

[09:14] <xBlueXFoxx> best brand

[09:14] <xBlueXFoxx> belkin drops

[09:14] <xBlueXFoxx> linksys sucks.

[09:14] <BrainDeadGamer> i was gunna get a linksys for 60 dollars

[09:14] <xBlueXFoxx> D-link I've found as my favorite.

[09:15] <xBlueXFoxx> simple to use

[09:15] <xBlueXFoxx> fast as hell

[09:15] <xBlueXFoxx> etc

[09:15] <xBlueXFoxx> not near as much setup time

[09:15] <xBlueXFoxx> and actually fucking works :+

[09:16] <xBlueXFoxx> of course, that's my opinion, but I would say it's fact

[09:16] <xBlueXFoxx> because yeah, every other router I've had sucked :+

[09:17] <BrainDeadGamer> okay

[09:17] <BrainDeadGamer> i was also gunna buy a D-link for 35 dollars

[09:17] <BrainDeadGamer> But it was a "N-150"

[09:17] <BrainDeadGamer> and it showed others that are like N-300

[09:17] <BrainDeadGamer> and N-300+

[09:17] <xBlueXFoxx> Moment hun. I'll see what model mine is.

[09:18] <BrainDeadGamer> kk

[09:18] <xBlueXFoxx> DIR-628

[09:18] <BrainDeadGamer> Hmm

[09:18] <BrainDeadGamer> lemme /q ingame

[09:18] <BrainDeadGamer> oh

[09:18] <BrainDeadGamer> and every router gives wireless internet, correct?

[09:19] <xBlueXFoxx> uhhh iunno, whatever you're getting should say, or be quite obvious if it has antenna's

[09:26] <BrainDeadGamer> o/

[09:26] <BrainDeadGamer> how much was ur router

[09:26] <BrainDeadGamer> was it an expansive one?

[09:26] <BrainDeadGamer> expensive^

[09:27] <xBlueXFoxx> I got no clue.

[09:27] <BrainDeadGamer> does it cover ur entire house?

[09:27] <xBlueXFoxx> indeed

[09:27] <BrainDeadGamer> o/

[09:27] <BrainDeadGamer> im worried with the cheap ones it wont :/

[09:28] <xBlueXFoxx> 4 ethernet and wireless, standard for most wireless routers

[09:28] <xBlueXFoxx> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833127288&cm_re=d_link_wireless-_-33-127-288-_-Product

[09:28] <xBlueXFoxx> that's a slightly older model than mine

[09:28] <xBlueXFoxx> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833127241&cm_re=d_link_wireless-_-33-127-241-_-Product

[09:28] <xBlueXFoxx> another slightly older, but closer

[09:29] <xBlueXFoxx> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833127215&cm_re=d_link_wireless-_-33-127-215-_-Product

[09:29] <xBlueXFoxx> Better than mine.

[09:29] <BrainDeadGamer> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833156242

[09:29] <BrainDeadGamer> i was gunna get one almost same as that

[09:29] <BrainDeadGamer> but was D-link

[09:29] <BrainDeadGamer> 1 more question

[09:30] <BrainDeadGamer> so if i put the wireless router in the room my pc is in then i can just take a ethernet cord and plug it into my pc?

[09:31] <xBlueXFoxx> plug in the modem (ethernet) that is hooked to a standard modem-pc, put it in the internet in port on the router

[09:31] <BrainDeadGamer> ahh kk

[09:31] <xBlueXFoxx> get another ethernet cord and plug it into the router (1 of 4 ethernet ports on the back) that goes to your pc

[09:31] <xBlueXFoxx> then you can have 3 other pc's on the other 3 ports

[09:32] <xBlueXFoxx> or, just use wireless, that the router will broadcast for you

[09:32] <xBlueXFoxx> you can encrypt the wireless so that neighbors don't use your network

[09:32] <BrainDeadGamer> im in the country

[09:32] <BrainDeadGamer> dont have to worry about that

[09:33] <xBlueXFoxx> you can have as many pc's on the wireless

[09:33] <xBlueXFoxx> as your bandwith will support

[09:33] <xBlueXFoxx> I got 3 pc's on wireless

[09:33] <xBlueXFoxx> my ipod

[09:33] <xBlueXFoxx> my sisters laptop when she comes over

[09:33] <xBlueXFoxx> and 1 pc on ethernet

[09:33] <xBlueXFoxx> all on DSL 10mbps internet

[09:33] <BrainDeadGamer> the pc ur on now, is it the ethernet one?

[09:33] <xBlueXFoxx> so you should be fine

[09:33] <xBlueXFoxx> no mines wireless

[09:34] <xBlueXFoxx> router is in the other room

[09:34] <xBlueXFoxx> I can still download torrents at 1.5mbps, so yeah bandwith should not be an issue

[09:34] <xBlueXFoxx> (pretty much as good as ethernet)

[09:35] <BrainDeadGamer> win

[09:35] <xBlueXFoxx> one dlink router can support a small city block.

[09:35] <BrainDeadGamer> so how would u hook it up

[09:35] <BrainDeadGamer> just plug in the internet cord to it?

[09:35] <xBlueXFoxx> manuals and shit come with it

[09:35] <xBlueXFoxx> power cord (derp)

[09:35] <BrainDeadGamer> ahh kk

[09:35] <BrainDeadGamer> ^

[09:35] <xBlueXFoxx> modem to router (ethernet)

[09:35] <xBlueXFoxx> router to PC (ethernet)

[09:35] <xBlueXFoxx> then set it up with the included CD

[09:35] <xBlueXFoxx> which is not required, just recommended

[09:35] <BrainDeadGamer> o/

[09:36] <BrainDeadGamer> ahh

[09:36] <BrainDeadGamer> okay so i just got 1 pc in the house thats in use

[09:36] <xBlueXFoxx> so you can set it up to your personal liking etc.

[09:36] <BrainDeadGamer> but when i get my laptop we will get a router

[09:36] <xBlueXFoxx> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833127241&cm_re=d_link_wireless-_-33-127-241-_-Product

[09:37] <xBlueXFoxx> I recommend this or better

[09:37] <xBlueXFoxx> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833127315&cm_re=d_link_wireless-_-33-127-315-_-Product

[09:37] <xBlueXFoxx> This is what 

[09:37] <xBlueXFoxx> I call better.

[09:37] <xBlueXFoxx> :+

[09:37] <xBlueXFoxx> I would like that but I don't need it

[09:37] <xBlueXFoxx> instead of 4, this one has 8 ethernet ports

[09:38] <xBlueXFoxx> I'm sure you wouldn'

[09:38] <xBlueXFoxx> wouldn't need it either

[09:38] <xBlueXFoxx> Maybe if I owned a building and made a LAN center I would want it

[09:38] <BrainDeadGamer> there will only be my i7 and the laptop

[09:38] <BrainDeadGamer> and maybe a netbook

[09:39] <xBlueXFoxx> and any small idevices you have etc

[09:39] <xBlueXFoxx> but yeah you should be perfectly fine

[09:39] <BrainDeadGamer> oh

[09:39] <BrainDeadGamer> ye

[09:39] <BrainDeadGamer> Ipod

[09:39] <BrainDeadGamer> and idk if ill hook up the wii

[09:39] <xBlueXFoxx> since I can host an army of computers on my network

[09:40] <xBlueXFoxx> I got 4 computers, 1 ipod, a laptop sometimes

[09:40] <BrainDeadGamer> Nice

[09:40] <xBlueXFoxx> and 2 neighbors because I don't like encrypting

[09:40] <xBlueXFoxx> on my network

[09:40] <xBlueXFoxx> (however I did password my router settings so they can not toy with it)

[09:41] <BrainDeadGamer> nice
