Hi there,
my service provider switched my inet connection to 120Mbits (Yes this is true, its Germany and its cheap too!).
So as I am really happy with that I am now facing the problem that my normal wireless is not fast enough. Additional to that I got a Mac Mini here (latest generation with HDMI) which is my projector connected to, some fancy Iphones and a Ipad 2 to come as soon as it is released.
What I am looking for is a great solution for
a) now getting good wireless performance (100 mbits or more?), gigabit ports and some way to share my 1 TB hard disk with usb 2.0 with a reasonable speed
b) in future - watching content of the hard disk on all devices, either on the projector with mac mini, ipad or iphone - eventually use the ipad 2 as remote for all that stuff - so in general a apple multimedia solution (any more info on that somewhere?)
So I was looking at the AirPort Extreme. Wireless performance seems okay but not great (10 MBits/ 80Mbits), it is fancy in connecting all Mac devices and its Apple
So what I found kind of disturbing is that the hardware is actually 3-4 years old (or am I wrong?).
I was also looking at other fancy routers:
TP-Link TL-WR1043ND
Netgear WNDR3700-100PES
Asus RT-N56U (looks fancy )
Any recommendations are very welcome..
