This may be a common question but I can't google an answer.
Appears my router is having some problems. Since I am now in ths
position of buying a replacement, I see I have a choice of getting a 'g'
router (replacing an existing one) or moving to (draft) 'n.'
I would prefer n to get more speed and range but I am somewhat hesitant
because of the draft status.
I am hoping some here will give me advice/opinion/fact that will help me
make the best decision.
I have been told, if I get n, I will be stuck with the same manufacturer
as long as the router is draft n. Is this true?
Will a draft n router work with my g devices/adapters?
Any other considerations?
