All over Usenet - and I only subscribe to 41 groups out of tens of
thousands of them.
The problem is while you have limited experience that shows one
situation, I've got what appears to be broader experience with many
different lines of each of the discussed vendors products, for many
years, over many different types of WAN connections. My experience, is
that "some" D-link product lines and some Linksys product lines are crap
or only residential grade devices, while Linksys doesn't offer higher
quality devices, D-Link does, and it appears you have NO EXPERIENCE with
the DFL devices.

How do you explain 20+ people that I personally know that still have
working 604 routers, that have never failed, for all these years - and I
know the same number in Linksys, but I've never seen either of their
residential routers provide better quality than the other.

Re: Slower DSL download speed with router
I think i went through about 7 or 8 Dlink routers in the first 6 months
while it was still under warranty and i said to myself i've had enough of
this. Upon some advice from a computer store owner i bought a linksys
router. I'm still using the same router 8 years later.

Ok, so you're completely discounting my experience with a LOT more
devices from each vendor than you have - why?
I've not said that either vendor makes perfect product, in fact, I've
said the contrary, but, it has been my experience, probably more than
many of the people that read this group, that the DFL series of routers
is a far better performing\quality device than any of the BEFSR, SX, VP
routers provided by Linksys.

Take the case with this fool: If I kill file him, he'll just switch to
another nym - he's already done exactly that - he really freaked before
he did though and that was kind of satisfying - You see I didn't really
kill file him. I just said I did and then read his posts, completely
ignoring what they said in mine. That's reason number one. Reason number
two, if you kill file them, they can say anything they want about you,
and you'll never know it, and that can be very bad. I'm sure you can
think of others, but you get the idea - you post they can read anything
you post, but you never read anything they post. Doesn't make for good
knowledge of the lay of the land.

What does that have to do with you thinking that your very, very, very,
limited experience means that you are absolutely right and that you
can't be wrong?
As I said, your experience is not typical, does not follow what I've
seen in way more cases, but it does indicate that there are some bad
products, bad runs, on both sides, as we've both seen bad devices.
What you've discounted is many years of my seeing cheap linksys units
fail in a lot more solutions than you have experience with.

Re: Slower DSL download speed with router
At one point in time a while back two smaller canadian isp's were using linksys
routers (the type they sell in best buy and future shop). That shows you what a
linksys router can handle. A Dlink router would last but a millisecond under that
kind of load.

No, you're just another victim that's experienced the "Steve delusion"
problem. I've seen it happen on at least 6 other groups. Just in case
you don't know (which apparently you don't - pay more attention to the
"volume" posters - good and bad) Tony aka Steve aka Seedless Grape aka
Steveo ... Are one and the same person. Welcome to usenet, where the
loonies you cross the street to avoid can send you messages.

LOL - so you're telling me that a ISP was using a BEFSR to route ALL of
their traffic from customers to the internet? Ha Ha Ha - you're lost.
They might have provided their customers with Linksys routers, but that
doesn't indicate they did it because of quality, more that they got a
good deal and wanted to limit excess traffic on their backbone from
their customer.
Why do you ignore that every linksys router I've placed under heavy load
has rebooted/failed, and when replaced with a D-Link DFL series router,
that there were no more failures, no problems?
It seems that facts and experience completely contradict the limited
scope of your experience. It would also seem that you don't know what
capacity the Linksys routers were used by that ISP or the capacity of
the ISP.

I don't live in Medina or Columbus. I've used this nickname for ages,
many years, and other than posting to one other group with a pseudo
first name because of moderator rules, I've never shifted names in
Usenet. I've been posting as either my nickname Leythos, Void or my real
name since 84.

LOL, yea, I figured he was a troll, but I was bored and figure that
facts will always get them upset, as it's hard to derail a fact based
discussion if you keep pointing out where they are wrong - even better
when you can prove they don't know what they are talking about

And I started in 84, and also with the Commodore network that relayed
messages between systems in the same area-codes to save toll costs
between states and Canada, long before 88.

And if they were having customer relation problems because of bad
connections you just might have hit on the reason.
Now, you've still not told us if they provided the Linksys to
users/subscribers or if they built their company infrastructure on the
Linksys routers - if users/subscribers, then there was little chance of
a significant load, if their infrastructure, they were fools and no
wonder they went under.
