Well, you're in luck! The Router also comes with two Cat5 cables (about 6' long I think).
I can't speak well enough about this router. I'm using it right now and does wonders for sharing bandwidth!

I couldn't find the SMC router at Staples.com. Is the availability of it limited by the zip code I entered? I think the zip code info is stored in the HD now. It's no use to delete temp files, history etc to allow me enter different zip codes when browsing Staples.com.
Anyone has the link to the router at Staples.com? Thanks.

I ordered one from allbusiness.com. I agree with amb#cog - this is a great deal by itself. You don't have to depend on the Staples CSR having woken up on the right side of the bed and all of the other hassles that goes along with PM + using a coupon. I also will not have to search for $13 worth of stuff that I might need.
question: to go from this router to a network switch(uplink port pref.) which cable do I need crossover or just a cat5 patch?
crossover cable is for linking two computers with no nub. in all other cases you need regular cable

Actually, you'd use a crossover when daisy-chaining hubs.
As for which one to use from this router to a switch, I think a straight Cat5 will work.
If not, just crimp yourself a crossover to fix. =)
i just got a replacement barricade sent to me from smc.
the new box only comes with one ethernet cable instead of two.
also the box doesnt say toll free 24/7 tech support on the upper right, altho i imagine it says it somewhere else.
anyone else get this?

Great find. Thanks. And I also didn't PM Staples because I already have too many useless stuffer in the house.
Picked one up $87, not a bad price when most sell it for around $99. And even cheaper if I send in the rebate. Definitely not worth the hassle to PM with Staples.
"That could be Staples' internal policy/order for the supervisor, CSR - use whatever way to avoid giving pricematch. Why should a business sell you something without profit? If you're the owner, will (sic) you want to do that? "
Kingofcomputer - I think the larger question should be, why would a business owner establish a policy (price-matching with coupons) that would cause the business to not make a profit?
And TBP is right. You don't look at it solely from the perspective that [ I may ] lose profit selling this one item at such a price, but that I may lose a customer if [ I ] don't. You don't alienate customers to counter a "bad corporate policy". It isn't the purchaser's responsibility to determine whether the vendor is making a profit or not, and to use such tactics is dishonest, unethical (not that the buisness community has much of a track record when it comes to corporate ethics), and above all, serves to develop distrust in the company that is dependent on the consumer to ensure it's existence. Office Max and Staples are both classic examples of where such dishonest and unethical behavior have resulted in a loss of this trust.

BTW, here's AllBusiness phone number 800-467-9866. The lady on their interactive chat system was giving out the wrong number. FYI, AllBusiness charge sales tax in CA. Had mine ship to Vegas and had to call them to change my shipping info.
Hope this help & thanks for the heads up!

Anyone have the Staples item number? I've tried calling and two CSR's were unable to find it. Thanks in advance.
for the extra $13 to reach $100 for the $20 extra coupon, does it mean I can get anything I want which add onto the order to pass $100? I picked the $14.14 50' cable which comes the total of $101.14 but still I don't see where I can get the coupon, plz help I am new to this.. embrass to say..
Staples CSR told me that they I will be charges $9.96 extra for shipping (they will do the PM), because competitor charges that much shipping (2-4 business days). The fact that allbusiness.firstsource.com give free 3-7 business days shipping won't help becuase Staples shiupping is "3-5 days"!!!
Any body having such an experience

245 sold in less than 24 hours... not bad! Especially considering that people may have tried PM from Staples too! Either that, or it was a pricing error and they wanted to quickly shut that down.
