Today I put this router in the system. Ultimately, I’ll have more throughput than with my Linksys WRT54GX Router. It’s in the box [also a tidy box—more later] as a backup.

I did a preliminary speed test to compare the 100 mbps LAN connection to the wireless speed. The 802.11N standard was not specified for the NIC, nor the router. The wireless connection was slightly slower. For some reason, I have a different outside IP address, which kept the WebCams offline longer that I expected. To facilitate the fastest change over, I used my Tablet PC to configure the new router. I also used static IP addresses for the 2 WebCam Servers.

It is set and functioning, with its backup right beside it. Now for a nap and then back to laptop setup.
