Help me out with this task plz... I'm old with challenged eyesite...

MistaHack — Fri, 04 May 2012 21:05:23 GMT

Hello, Well, with challenged eyesite, and limited mobility, I must ask for a little help. And I'm not above paying you a few bob to help out. What I need is or you to copy to a disk the driver software for a netgear usb driver I have and cant find the disk. N-USB WN111v2 and I'm using Windows Vista laptop. It's so hard to get mobile enough to get to a store to buy some disks, I thought I'd ask someone here to help me out by downloading the driver to a disk and sending the disk to me through snail mail. if you email me at monster.craigslist@yahoo.com we can work out the details of the mailing address. I can't believe I have no disks in here.... lol.. stuff happens. WE can also talk on the phone. I appreciate you very much... good job guys on here! I'm new here. I have paypal so I can email you a few bob as I said. :) Many, many thanks guys! MistaHacka

dgn2200, building a custom firmware

b8e5n — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 08:33:13 GMT

Hello every one, I was thinking of modifying the firmware of the DGN2200 netgear router, in the aim to add more functionalities like the DLNA, or the access to etx hard drives. I know that it already works with readyshare, and the firmware might not be very different of the famous 3500L, so I was wondering if it can be possible to adapt the work from the 3500L to the DGN2200... I never did such work before, but i am ready for it :) Here is the link to the latest (1.0.0.36) firmware provided by netgear : http://netgeardownload.registria.com/single_page_registration?product[sku]=DGN2200B&download_url=ftp://downloads.netgear.com/files/DGN2200B-V1.0.0.36_7.0.36.chk

Malware blacklisting

dgingeri — Tue, 08 Mar 2011 16:13:20 GMT

Suggestion here for all routers: a Malware Blacklist Known malware sites, by IP address, could be blocked. I know we can manually add blacklisted IP addresses in most routers. (I haven't even tried with my WNR3500L yet.) However, these functions are usually far too limited both in list size and ease of adding to the list. Many are limited to 20 to 50 addresses, when there are several hundred out there. Also, adding to the list is usually a one at a time ordeal. This would take decades with a list of hundreds of addresses. Even if all that is added is a way to paste a list into the router interface, that would be hugely helpful.

Good Wireless N Router w/ gigabit

TWoods450 — Wed, 14 Jul 2010 04:44:10 GMT

Can anyone recommend a good wireless N router that will support DD-WRT or Tomato? I just bought the Netgear WNR3500L, and it sucks. the range and speeds are worse than my Old Netgear WGT624. Either this router is not all its cracked up to be or Tomato 1.27 isn't doing it justice.

I have minimal knowledge of computers. My Netgear WGT624 v3 I think just died. At least my wireless is no longer working. I'm needing to buy a new router asap and am looking at the WGR614L or WGR614. Is that a good choice? And should I go with WGR614L? Any feedback is appreciated. Diana

from original firmware to tomato

misterzinzin — Tue, 18 May 2010 22:05:55 GMT

Hi Everybody, I just received an WRN3500L router. I installed Tomato firmware (1.27) and it's not user friendly... (must install dd-wrt and then install tomato and the erase nvram ...) I found a lot of interesting functionalities. - dyndns : realy usefull - qos : i don't know if it's realy working well but i was amazing to see all the layer7 protocol implemented! -ftp: it's easy to set up... but a little bit simple. it's not possible to set up access to a specific folder (/mnt/hdd/public for all /mnt/hdd/toto only for toto /mnt/hdd/work for work with some user)... i am still using a nas (iomega ix2) - file sharing: work fine (my mac mini saw it :) ) - file sharing speed: a little bit slow with gigabit (5,5mo/s when downloading a movie) -vpn ? i didnt found it. i am looking for a solution to bypass chinese filter when i am in china... (before i was using ubuntu with openvpn and squid) I hope that the new version of tomato will implement or improve all these remark ;)

Product Suggestions

Aidan — Wed, 27 Jan 2010 00:21:47 GMT

Hi all I would like to make suggestions regarding the blocking of sites section of my router specifically the schedule. I love having the ability to block sites but I really thinkthat being able to set a schedule for individual groups of sites or even individual key words would be fantastic for example as a parent with children in different age ranges I would like to block all porn related sites all the time, I would also like to block say facebook, bebo and chat sites on say school nights or at least during homework time and say after a certain time at night but not on weekends, problem is that its all or nothing if i set a schedule and its open on weekends then all the porn is open aswell. So all in all a useful feature but really could have been expanded to make it more versatile. Regards you can send the royalty cheques to my home address lol

I need a wireless range expander and wired ethernet ports.

TK — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 22:46:49 GMT

I hope someone here can help me. I have a 2 story house plus basement. On the top floor I have my cable modem and my wireless router(Belkin N150). My entertainment center is 2 floors down in the basement. I am having trouble consistently connecting to my wireless network in the basement and I would like to have a couple of ethernet ports in the entertainment center to plug in my DISH Network DVR (722VIP) and the ocassional laptop to stream music to my AV devices. So what I am told I need is a range extender/repeater but the ones I have seen do not have any ethernet ports once they are set up to repeat the wireless signal. The reason I joined this forum is that it at least came up with some of the terms when I googled it. BTW, I am not a networking guru so if you have done this the specifics of configuration would also be greatly appreciated. Anyone? TK

NETGEAR RangeMax Open Source Wireless-N Gigabit Router WNR3500L

Schugy — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 20:30:33 GMT

I've accidentely found out, that there's a newer Netgear Router marketed as an Open Source router. Why only by accident? Isn't this the successor that should be the main topic on this site since it has been released? Instead on June 15, 2009 05:11 PM the article NETGEAR WGR614L Router Review went online. I really love my two WGR614L running DD-WRT but without N WiFi I think these devices are somewhat obsolete and often aren't considered by customers that want to buy a router today. To be fair: On February 25, 2008 there has been the article NETGEAR's Lineup of Wireless-N Routers but it seems like the WNR3500L running a LINUX firmware hasn't hit the market that time yet. But when it hit the market there hasn't been a new article. I think this is a sort of bad marketing I'm seriously interested in buying a WNR3500L but I need a first DD-WRT release for this router ;-) Since nobody knows this one not many people raise the voice for making this one a top priority of the DD-WRT devs.. I hope for more efforts making this one a successfull open source router. P.S. I'm still happy that I've won...

Open Innovation Projects

Kerba — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 10:10:30 GMT

Hello, in the header of this forum folder I've been reading: "Get the latest news and information on the world of open source networking and custom application development. " ... and open source networking is exactely what I'm doing, so I decided to tell you about it. I created the webpage http://open-innovation-projects.org Our first target is to collect a list of open development initiatives of physical products, to show information about the projects and simplify access to them. In the long-term we intent to build a community for exchange between open source innovation enthusiasts. So far 85 projects have been registered, I'm really enthusiastic that this is going to work. As I've already heard a lot about this project, I hope you don't mind that I added it to our list. So far we cannot offer more then other directories, but I guess a link to a project page won't do any harm. Here you can find myopenrouter's project entry: http://open-innovation-projects.org/projects/detail/274 What do you think about this idea? I hope it makes sense to you ;-) Kind regards Kerba

Wish list for an improved WGR614L

bzing2 — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 13:29:29 GMT

I have been hacking around with the WGR614L for a while now, and it is a nice bit of kit; however, as always, there are things you notice along the way that could be improved upon. What follows is my take on what would be execlent to see in the next product/itteration. I have to commend Netgear for stepping into the Open Soruce market; I hope my comments will enable them to make the most of this market. Hardware A pin header for the serial port. Just about any hacking requires the use of a serial port. It would be great if the "soldering" hurdle could be avoided (it fine if like me your ok with a soldering iorn), that would really open up the device to a greater number of people. Just look at the number of "do you have a serial port" comments on this site. Use standard screws to access to case; I had to purchace a T-8 screwdriver just to get the case off. If you want people to hack it, let them get to it. The chipset has two serial ports, and a USB host port. It would be great if the additional serial port...
