Anyone remember a discussion about the WL500gP not working "properly" with Intel miniPCI cards and some of you mentioning this was not Asus's fault?

"Additionally, the firm launched the "Connect...

To Gerry Boland : Thank you

Now, I'm no "real noob" you guys. I just don't do programming or fidling too much with stuff I can't get my head arround. Regarding wifi/wlan, I'm getting better every...

I think I know what is wrong, this product is not for me at all. The WL-500gp(or any other Asus router for that matter) is not for "ordinary" users, but for highly advanced users who like to do...

No reply from Asus, no update yet. BTW I'm trying to download 1970 now, but I'm have big problems with the Asus site.

For several tries, I get a message that the activity/download is too high...

Ah, that is totally besides the point. I had no intention to "tinker" with the damn box, I just wanted a router that worked, I could hook up a printer and an external disc.

Another thing, if you...

It's not nice to kick a dead horse, but this is what I initially experienced. There are some people here who doesn't "like" me or what I wrote, but at least I had a point (even if I didn't have tact...

Ah yes, the wrath of "locals"....I'll shut up now, but at least when some other piece of fresh wifi-meat strolls into this forum, at least he'll now that it's sometimes a hassle getting this thing to...

Still having problems with slow speeds, then suddenly no problems, then extremely slow speeds the next second. I Still think "ordinary" people shouldn't buy the Asus WL500gP....

If it's Asus's...

THIS IS SHOUTING......THIS is just MAKINg a point or putting attention to certain words, no?

When I connect to the routers LAN port, I always get from 6000 to 7000 kbps. With my stationary pc, I...

Don't recall "shouting", but off course you have a point. Shouting isn't very intelligent. But that is a totally different discussion, the thing that I wanted to get across was that the router isn't...

How did you know I wasn't tall........hmmm

Here's my "WHY not buy the WL-500gP" :


Asus has lousy firmware!

It's GREAT that we have people like Oleg who tinker with sw for products like this, but it should be for people who want extra...

Replace it...

YES, it is a bit harsh to say "DON'T BUY ASUS" but I have now set up 3Com, Belkin, Philips, Netgear and Linkys routers. Every one was less hassle then this Asus one. It's perhaps because of the added...

Have a HP Photosmart 7660 printer and an old HP Deskjet 970c printer.

The 7660 is connected to the router
The 970c is connected to a Dell desktop computer
My laptop is conneted via Wlan
My dell...

Looks like you have found out the same thing as me. I've spent some more time with this issue, searching the web (Since we are not allowed "to Google" stuff any more........). This is what I found...

Appreciate the fast respone Oleg. I have been "cruising" this forum for a long time before buying a new router and as far as I can tell, you are "The Goto Guy" as they say in old mafia movies.

I'm sitting here, looking around for a new wlan router to replace my old, booring one.

I WAS looking at the WL-500g Premium because I want to hook up an external HDD on it (and the download...
