4+ Port Wired Router

[BobbyDouglas]

I am looking for a stable 4+ port wired router.

 

I have heard good things about dlink, linksys, belkin, and netgear. Right now my current 4 port router is giving me very annoying timeout messages. I think it is just getting too old to handle anything.

 

Any suggestions?

I would recommend the Linksys BEFW11S4 for $4.94 after coupon and rebate.

 

Yes you read that correctly $4.94

 

• Connect your DSL Modem to the Router, and all the computers in your household can share the Internet -- all at the same time
• Connect your home computers directly to the Router with Ethernet cables, or put wireless network adapters in them and communicate over radio waves
• Once your computers are connected to the Router, they can communicate with each other too, sharing resources and files, and print on a shared printer
• All wireless communications are protected by 128-bit encryption

Although it's a wireless router it also has 4 wired 10/100 Ethernet ports.

 

For only $5 you can't really go wrong and Linksys is a reputable brand.

Although this is the slower 802.11b it's a nice solid wired/wireless router

I've been using that exact model for about 3 years now. No problems ever.

 

Paid around $200 for it

"Paid around $200 for it "

Lmao as I place my order for $5

Here are two other non-wireless options:

• D-Link DI-604 for $24.49 after rebate.
• Netgear RP614 for $29.99

And I bought it from Dell with a coupon and it was still that much. It actually may have been closer to $150 now that I think of it. But I've gotten 3+ years out of it, so in the long run it was still worth it.

Absolutely concur.

 

Nice score, BobbyDouglas. Big assist goes to Rossy.
