Actually, that's not true... Head Here for an explanation :) ...Your referring to the TJ. You are dead on for the KJ, though

Wayyyyyy off topic... but since you asked :D (and I can't turn down a chance to talk Jeep) I've had 2 emails from people with XJ's (geek speek for Cherokee) saying that they removed something... My wife's '98 XJ air filter box is similar, but no 'horn'. Since the XJ was 'refreshed' in '97, that could have been changed. If you look at step 1) the pipe coming out of the air filter box (with the arrow) is much shorter on my wife's XJ. Check it out and let me know. My pages are way overdue for some TLC and I'll put any info I get up:)

read what he put, its not logical.

and I said in MY case it didnt work, and that for others it did. If I had read a similar post back in May I wouldnt have messed with the Linksys for so long, if i knew other had the same problem.

Perfect example is your system (see picture :) ), it works for you, and if the Linksys had worked for me I would have been here singing its praises, but it didnt.

I didnt mean to be emotional!

PS will that 10hp gain work on a '92 4.0 Cherokee too?

I'm unsure why these routers elicit such seemingly emotional responses? If it works for you GREAT! If it doesn't fix it or return it for something that does, relate your experiences and move on :)

To The Original Poster:
I'd start with a D-Link (I would suggest the single LAN port version...if they make it), simply because you already own a D-Link switch and you can usually level the 'playground' by using networking equipment by the same manufacturer when possible. Be sure that where you bought it from has an acceptable return policy, because there will be a chance that this or any other router may not work with your computer and/or your ISP.

thats my setup, i just go from the router to the uplink on my hub with a straight through, it will work that way.

I should work for SMC I really love this product.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Linksys-Router-vs-DLink-Router-Which-is-easier-155617 Sat, 28 Oct 2000 00:19:47 EDT Re: Linksys Router vs. D-Link Router Which is easier? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Linksys-Router-vs-DLink-Router-Which-is-easier-155468 ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Linksys-Router-vs-DLink-Router-Which-is-easier-155468 Fri, 27 Oct 2000 22:59:21 EDT Re: Linksys Router vs. D-Link Router Which is easier? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Linksys-Router-vs-DLink-Router-Which-is-easier-155110 Like I first said the Linksys works for some people, but as a percentage the SMC wins.

From www.practicallynetworked.com :
Linksys: Opinion Summary: 79% Good 21% Bad 797 Submitted
SMC: Opinion Summary: 94% Good 6% Bad 62 Submitted

here's a couple from today:
Every few min. my router craps up my connection. I don't think it can handle PPPoE very well.

I am plagued by about 20 disconnects a day, and it is slowly driving me crazy.

That said the SMC adds a printer and 56k hookup. www.Dealnn.com has a $30 off coupon for Buy.com, theres a $20 rebate, so its cheap too.


Easy to setup, heck yes, I just plugged it in and renewed my IP. Now have 3 machines 98SE, 2K all hooked up, all can print. No hangups, easy firmware upgrade, nice size, plenty of flashing lights..... ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Linksys-Router-vs-DLink-Router-Which-is-easier-153115 Thu, 26 Oct 2000 17:07:49 EDT Re: Linksys Router vs. D-Link Router Which is easier? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Linksys-Router-vs-DLink-Router-Which-is-easier-152728 said by twodaend:

I am thinking about getting a router, but I don't want something that is complicated to setup. Right now I have two computers connected to a 5 port D-Link switch along with my dsl modem. I wanted to know some of the experiences that you all have had in using one or the other or even both routers, along with a recommendation as to which one to pick.

Thanks for all the help!!
:) :)


If you installed up your own home network yourself it will take you about 15-20 minutes to unpack, install, and configure a Linksys router. Since you alredy have a switch get the BEFSR11 single port linksys and hook to your exisitng switch.

I have only actually configured a linksys so I cant say if the D-Link is just as easy or not. (someone want to send me one I'll be happy to try it... hehehe)
