Hey guys,
I have a perfectly functioning D-Link GamerLounge DGL-4500 that I hear is quite the wireless router. I do love it, but either my ISP (Comcast) is screwing with me with 100 kb/sec download speeds (I pay $45 for high speed internet) or this router is not delivering as hoped. Also, I live in a two story home and can get a full wireless signal throughout the first floor and even walking around the half acre property or being in my detached garage. Yet, the second floor does not get the signal at all.
I was wondering if anyone could tell me if Time Capsule would be a worthwhile upgrade (I'd get it instead of Airport Extreme for the back up HD), perhaps being more powerful to allow faster download speeds or, at the very least, a wireless signal upstairs?
Just for reference, I don't do wired connections since I have an MBA and I move around a lot.
P.S. What is the Airport Express about? I don't understand when that is needed at all.
