My favorite brand is Buffalo. In two years I went through two Linksyses, a D-Link, and a Netgear. They all had the same 'dropping the connection, not allowing connection' problems. I've been using a Buffalo for years now and I've restarted it only a half-dozen times. Most of the time is wasn't even a problem with the router.
I've never heard of that brand before. Where did you buy it?
Was Buffalo the brand that was pulled from the US market briefly? :hmm: cant remember which one it was

Yea it was, I wasn't aware of this...

From Wikipedia...
Quote
In late 2006, the Australian Commonwealth Scientific and Research Organization (CSIRO) won a lawsuit against Buffalo Inc. under which it would receive a royalty for every WLAN product worldwide. [2] The lawsuits basis was that CSIRO was granted US patent 5487069 in 1996, which grants elements of 802.11a/g wireless technology that had become an industry standard.[3] In June of 2007, the federal court in Texas granted an injunction to prevent any more wireless products from shipping until a license agreement had been reached.[4]On September 19, 2008, the Federal Circuit ruled in Buffalo’s favor and has remanded this case to the district court ruling that the district court’s Summary Judgment was insufficient on the merits of obviousness of CSIRO’s patent. Therefore, this case will be tried again before the district court. In this connection Buffalo is hopeful that it will shortly be permitted to, once again, sell IEEE 802.11a and 802.11g compliant products in the United States.

It looks like only 802.11a and g products are the only ones they cant sell right now, however I see N products available.

Gil was cool although he started a lot of debates here, with the exception of his last year and a half or so here when he started to mature a lot.

Well, my group in the Media Issues class finally got our first real project finished and I just uploaded it to to the Vision's youtube channel.

My group decided to do our narrative project with a take of Bruno, and the sophomore who played him did a great job acting the role. This was our first project ever, so the Vision does put out better stuff than this :P

So I'm listening to Music Choice "smooth jazz" (as I do sometimes), and they play Dave Koz's "And Then I Knew" literally once an hour.  Every time I listen.  It's not even that good of a song to begin with.

Pretty chilly this morning. I think I need to go back to the Stove. 39 degrees, with a wind chill of 28. I want my spring back.

I love when it is cold in the morning, and the sun warms it up quickly :D
