Saw up the thread there were a couple of good SSID names. There are some quite amazing SSID's out there. My street name is Gona street so mine is named "ImaGona" and my previous place was "Pretty fly for a wifi".
Bird, how are you liking the WNDR4500 so far? Always good to get real world results.

We have to start thinking about what sort of a world we are going to leave for Keith Richards after we are all gone.

Excellent unit... The wireless signal output was unbeatable.. also got a couple of units for a mates work and home that have made him smile.... :)


Although I've now changed my setup with Optus, and have a new router from them with wireless built in, which I've been using... so the 4500 is sitting there now looking pretty...
if your lookin for one PM me.

did you use the netgear as just an access point, or full-on router?

if noel doesn't take you up on your offer, i might (depending on the price, of course...) ... :)

I used it in conjunction with the Surfboard 4100 modem, which was ancient and didn't have wireless LOL
$100 and you can have it. 179 is best on static ice at moment.

Does that require surgery to get it back out?
