    I'm hoping I don't have any problems. I just ordered the D-Link 625 wireless router, to use with my slingbox, laptop, and PS3.

    First of all, have you tried restarting your laptop?

    Linksys is one of the best. I use it and don't have any problems unlike that D-link crap that gave me trouble.

    Always reboot your router first.

    Funny cause D-Link was rated #1 when it came to Wireless Routers. I read that somewhere but I don't remember.


    Linksys is teh suxx0rettes.

    I use Netgear.
