The Best ADSL Wireless Modem/Router

Wednesday, November 23rd, 2011

If you’re looking for the Best ADSL Wireless Modem/Router and I mean the best then warcom has it covered, because we hate drop outs, poor signal, slow connections, high prices and non user friendly interfaces as much as you do!  The first 2 ADSL Modems you’ll see below are winners of with CNET which have been selected as this years winners for the Best ADSL Wireless Modem/Routers for 2011! (Home use)

 

FRITZ!Box AVM7390 ADSL2+ VDSL Router - $319.95

The Fritz!Box 7390 is an ADSL Modem router straight out of Germany, coming with all the latest technologies, including voip and Wireless N and everything else you can think of so there won’t be any need for replacing your 7390 in 5 years time.

The price is a bit more expensive over your standard modem/router with VOIP, lets say the Billion BiPAC 7404VNOX for $245 as an example, but the 7390 does come with loads more features…

  • Fast Internet thanks to integrated ADSL2+ modem
  • Concurrent Dual Band Wireless N up to 300Mbits
  • Also suitable for combination with 3G or cable modem
  • DECT base station for connecting up to 6 cordless telephones
  • Connection of analog terminal devices and telephone systems
  • Telephone calls via the Internet (VoIP), even if the PC is switched off
  • Up to 5 answering machines and fax function integrated, voice-to-mail and fax-to-mail
  • USB port for USB devices such as printers and storage media for shared use in the network
  • Media server for music, images, and videos in the network
  • Integrated network storage with NAS functionality
  • 5 year warranty
Fritz has definitely shot itself into the top ranks competing with Draytek, Netgear and D-Link and will continue to for years to come.
Billion 7800n is the best modem router for your home
If you’re looking for a basic, easy to setup, strong and reliable wireless for your home then the 7800n is definitely a winner, running with 4 ports on the back so you can easily connect via Ethernet cable or wirelessly.
The Antennas on the Billion 7800n are also detachable making it easily up gradable to higher strength antennas, 5dbi/7dbi.
Even though it doesn’t come with 5ghz capability you’re not going to need such strength if you’re using it in your home.

Key Features

  • Dual-WAN approach – ADSL2+ or Ethernet WAN for Broadband Connectivity
  • 4-port Gigabit Switch
  • Supports -802.11n Wireless Access Point with WPA-PSK / WPA2-PSK (BiPAC 7800N)
  • High-speed Internet Access via ADSL2/2+; Backwards Compatible with ADSL
  • WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) for Easy Setup (BiPAC 7800N)
  • Wireless Speed up to 300Mbps and 3 Times the Coverage of Standard 802.11b/g (BiPAC 7800N)
  • Quality of Service Control for Traffic Prioritization and Bandwidth Management
  • SOHO Firewall Security with DoS Prevention and Packet Filtering
  • Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) Compliance
  • Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS)
  • Available Syslog monitoring
  • Ease of Use with Quick Installation Wizard and Auto-scan ADSL settings
  • Supports IPTV Applications
  • Easy Sign-On (EZSO)
The 2820n wasn’t on the Cnet list, but I guess it’s more of a small business modem/router, being able to enable ADSL, cable, 3G mobile and satellite all in the one box is pretty amazing. Having the capability to run fail over just in case your main internet connect cuts out and you want it to run off your back up 3g.
The 2820n is capable of large loads in an office environment, we use the 2820n ourselves connecting our computers wirelessly and via Ethernet, we even put on some 7dbi antennas on there and I now think we’re broadcasting to the whole neighbourhood!
  • Easy Internet-sharing via ADSL, ADSL2/2+ connection
  • 2nd WAN Ethernet port or USB port for policy-based load-balance and fail-over
  • Multi-function USB port for 3G mobile broadband Internet access and printer server
  • Object-based firewall preventing from external attacks and simplifying the Internet access policy settings
  • Hardware-based VPN platform for high performance remote data access
  • Flexible bandwidth management to optimize bandwidth usage
  • 802.11n (Draft-n) improves the wireless speed and coverage
  • Friendly Web-based user interface and Quick Start Wizard

The HP Proliant N36L Replaced By HP N40L Microserver

Thursday, November 3rd, 2011

HP N36L Microserver has now been replaced by the HP N40L MicroServer.

The HP N40L MicroServer is selling at a new price of $278.00, which is only $34 more then the N36L We currently have a few left in stock downstairs and more will be arriving soon!

HP MicroServer AMD-N40L 2GB RAM, 250GB Hard Drive

HP MicroServer AMD-N40L 2GB RAM, 250GB Hard Drive

 What’s the difference between the two HP MicroServers?

Apperance

In regards to appearance, there’s no difference at all, the same case is being used, and it’s still coming in the same cardboard box, there’s no way of telling if someone has the HP N36L MicroServer or the HP N40L MicroServer just by looking at it.

Hardware

The old HP N36L Microserver came with a 1.3ghz dual core processor and only 1gb of ECC ram. HP has upgraded the N40L to a 1.5ghz dual core processor and comes with 2gb of ECC ram. Still with the 250gb of storage as standard.

You can upgrade the ram to up to 8gb, also put in a low profile graphics card and up to 8gb of HDD space. It also does come standard with 1 Ethernet port, but if you’re in need of wireless signal from the microserver I suggest you purchase a USB wireless dongle instead of trying to

DrayTek Vigor N61 USB Wireless Adaptor for $42.13

The Draytek USB wireless adaptor is one of the better made dongles of the time, using wireless N signals for high speeds of up to 300mb/s! You could easily swap this out and plug it into any other machines that you own.

Windows home server 2011 is also on special at the moment for $52.18! Get on it because stock is limited!

Feel free to head on over to the website and place an order for new and improved HP Proliant N40L microserver today, stock is HIGHLY limited and doesn’t stick around for long periods of time, so don’t think about it for to long!

If you’re interested in the upgrades for your microserver head over to /blogs/hp-microserver-n36l-compatible-upgrades/ and see what works!
