| 458198 | 2006-05-27 10:18:00 | Hi guys, i have a BELKIN PRE-N with mimo technology router and i am oing to purchase a macbook. Juz wondering if it will be compatible or do i have to buy an airport extreme base station? Btw, can i purchase a few cheap wireless router off trademe and add it to my existing PRE-N router to extend coverage? Coz i want to open my network for free wifi. and is there a way to limit each client to say 15kb/s max speed? so that people wont take advantage. My main aim is to provide free broadband for surfing and emails not downloading etc. |

It will probably just start working as part of your network. ;) If it's got an internal WiFi card, that will prot without any trouble either. You idea of making a free Access Point might cause you to be more altruistic than you intend. You might want "to provide free broadband for surfing and emails not downloading etc." "Them Evil Ones Out There" will try all ways to do their downloads at your expense. They will take advantage if they can. Let them buy their own. Even if you decide to do that, you will have to be careful to make sure they can't get in. ;) |
