Tiny routers at Newegg

you cant physically daisy chain either of those routers. you can use them as extensions, but they only have 1 ethernet port so you would have to do wireless distribution which is slower and those routers arent that fast to begin with.

there are better routers do do daisy chaining.

I think he was referring to using it as a wireless repeater, not physically daisy chaining them. I'm certainly planning to use mine that way. Is there something else you'd recommend (that's also a good value) that would be better to use a wireless repeater?

i think you can run the backbone links in 5ghz mode, where there is least interference. then, run the client broadcast in 2.4ghz and bridge your bands together. should make a very reliable and fast network. dont quote me on that but i think thats what you can do with this. irrc

I just bought four of them to use as 5Ghz WDS links, using DD-WRT. Then I found out the painful truth that DD-WRT does NOT yet support 5Ghz at all on these units.

geesh the power adapters are larger than the actual routers. i need something with the power supply inline with the cable and not a huge chunk of plastic at the tap. seeing as how this is USB, someone should be able to find one for me eh?
