| baby steps.. realize your dealing with the parent company: cisco
they make these product improvements VERY VERY VERY VERY slowly!! first incarnations of 802.11n are total crap and overpriced. my brother bought an 802.11n usb adapter just to see if the neighbor's n router would be any faster or more reliable a couple of doors away (which, from the advertisements of 802.11n-supposed to be MORE reliable at a distance).. well, IT IS NOT!! if anything it drops connection and is LESS RELIABLE than G or B... now, that could just be the first versions of this equipment..
their router was the linksys 310n and i was using a linksys wusb 300n adapter... and it sucked bigtime.. did much better with my netgear 802.11g usb adapter!
the whole point of 802.11n was to use channel bonding to multiply the throughput... for some reason either that was not happening.. or the signal strength of each device was pitiful at best. i seriously doubt the 610n is much better.
wait until they get to 810 or 1000x series.. then they just might produce something worth buying.. then again, maybe not.. if a competitors product does better, by all means, buy that instead! |
