	silvadel2 posted: Lets rephrase then -- what is a decent router that I could get that would work without having the difficulties I had with the old 2.0 modem. IE reliably. I don't want the wireless on because I can feel wireless. It is like a palpable change and after an hour or so I get a headache. Hence I definitely require it to not transmit wirelessly (in essence that feature would be always off -- and I wouldnt want it transmitting even though the thing is hooked up with wires). First of all, DOCSIS 2/3.0 have nothing to do with the router. Those are modem features, and you will need to buy a new modem to get DOCSIS 3.0. As for non-wireless routers, all home model routers have built-in wireless now. The only options you have are buy one and disable the wireless (very easy to do), or buy a business class router that does not have built-in wireless -----signature----- www.ice9gaming.com - cs / tf2 / bf2 <3 Oregon State - CWS Winnars x2

Ok comcast sent me a ubee d3.0 which upgraded from my toshiba pcx2600 which was cutting out often since they switched to docsis 3.0. The ubee d3.0 does not have that cutting out problem... The router I was using was a linksys befsr41 which is insufficient for the new modem and docsis 3.0. This means I need to find a new router. I have been looking around but the reviews etc tend to go by how good the wireless is not how good the wired connections through it are. I have no interest whatsoever in wireless -- Wireless causes me issues. What I want connected to it is all in one room and I just want to hook it up in a wired manner. --- So I just want a reliable gigabit router that will handle my computer, my portable, and my ps3 and not drop me in the middle of a game and come back up a few seconds later over and over. I mean I could just buy a random router that says gigabit on the box, but I would rather make a more informed choice. I doubt that I need anything super massive (expensive) -- I just need something reliable that will work. -----signature----- Lost postcount 17k; Lost years 9.6; Lost Title: Priceless The most expensive things in life are free Asheron's Call 3 // Horizons 2 -- Dragons of Dereth (one can always hope) 1920x1200 is a Monitor. 1920x1080 is a TV without a tuner.

I doubt that I need anything super massive (expensive) -- I just need something reliable that will work. Like others have said, just find a reliable router and simply disable or don't use the wireless portion if you don't need it. The only thing you will want to look for is a router with a Gigabit WAN port (many have 10/100 ports for the WAN, with gigabit only on the LAN switch ports, but with Cable providers supplying newer equipment with gigabit ports on the Ethernet side, newer models are adding Gig to the WAN as well). Here's a list from newegg, find a well-reviewed one in your budget and go with that one: http://goo.gl/S8ui3 -----signature----- The scripts/links below don't work anymore...I should really change my signature: Skill Calculator: http://www.strikefast.net/skillcalc/ Salvage Calculator: http://www.strikefast.net/tinkering/salvaging/ *** 09-11-01
