Hi all,

I just picked up a new Netgear WNDR3400 and got her all hooked up and now my internet connection is super slow both wired and wireless. My Linksys G had no problems what soever and had fast load times. With this router it now takes at least a minute usually longer to load any webpage. Im not sure what i need to do. I changed the DNS settings to googles public dns and that helped some. I wpa2 on and turned spi off. Im not sure what else to do in the settings. Any ideas?

Try the buffalo airstation WZR-300mbps 2.4ghz only model - i use that with a linksys $18 WUSB600n and lock 300mbps all day long about 16.5 MEGABYTES/second average. the WNDR i tried and linksys e4200 were more like 12-13 MEGABYTES/second on both 5ghz and 2.4ghz - FAIL.

buffalo has a new 450mbps 2.4ghz model -- that would be hot but all my gear is only 300mbps.
