Choice of wireless router
Hi. Can anybody give me some advice regarding choice of router. I am currently using Apple Airport Express as my main router, and regarding read and write speed to and from my Readynas Ultra 2 I...
I use an AE with an AEBS and am very satisfied. Very flexible, works without issue with my macs, very easy to configure, supports 5GHz wireless which enables upto 15MBps wireless transfers, guest wireless networks and all forms of port forwarding & trigger. Only negative is there only being a total of 4 ethernet ports, one of which you lose connecting to your broadband modem. (Other routers typically have 4 ports plus an additional WAN/LAN port)
I believe that Airport Express can only wirelessly extend networks from other Apple equipment, but it can act as an extender if you connect it to the main router via cable.
I've no comments on the Netgear routers you mention as I haven't used them
