Re: [modem/router] getting a wireless dsl modem

Bit-torrent works fine, you just usually have to use port forwarding. BTW, the 6100 you currently have, is a modem router, just with a single ethernet port. If you were to add a simple switch or hub, it would be just like a 327w but without wireless.

*EDIT* Did you get your modem back up and running?

@verizon.net

yes i did, it is working fine now.

i figured as much re. the 6100 acting as a router. i've considered getting a hub, but since i have computers in different rooms of an apartment, it would be really inconvenient to have cables running around through doorways and such (also it would be a pain to get a laptop on the network!)

as it stands now, i should probably start reading up on reviews of various wireless routers.

I just mentioned that to clarify how everything works. As far as routers, popular ones seem to be the Linkys WRT-54G and Netgear WGT-624. Don't quote me though, I've never used one myself, though I have set some up for people.
