Info update: WL-700gE

[britnet]

Hi LeperKing,

one distributor in the NL has them.

How much did you pay for it?

295 € or less?

[Extreme]

€295.00 is much to expensive...should be < 200€

Below € 200,-- is impossible - at least at the moment.
If you want it for less than € 200,-- you need to wait until Asus lowers the price dramatically.

Regards,

Extreme

Hey,

I also ordered mine (here in Holland) and according to the "track and trace" of the package it should arrive either today or tomorrow!

YEAH!

Hopefully have the whole weekend to play with it and let you guys know how it works.

Cool,
where did you ordered it?

[Leviter]

I ordered mine at Zercom Computers in Eindhoven. But there are some more stores who have it on sale.

On (one of my favorite) Dutch tech sites there is a pricewatch. Check it out here.

I sure hope this router was worth the money...

Hi there again,

I can tell you that I made some good experiences with the WL-700ge.
One thing I found out is:
If you need a special computername from your ISP in your machine to log on the internet it is not enough to put this computername into the field "host name" under ISP settings. You also might need to change the "machine name" to that name so that your WL-700ge makes connection to the internet.

Best regards,

Guido

Hi guys ,

its up and running fine ! Great Router :-)
I find a prloblem with the BT Download. The filesize is limeted to 2 GB.
I try to download the new Suse Linux 10.1 64bit DVD ISO (Size 3,xx GB) and the BT downloadmachine tell me a size 2,0 GB. I dont know why.
But i can copy file lager 2 GB with the explorer to the router.
I will report this to asus in the next days.

Have fun guys

Dirk

Hello ,

some updates about the WL-700gE :

1. BT downloads works only if the filesize <2 GB.
If the file lager then the Download Master will not load the file.

2. No Disk spindown in firmware 1.0.4.1 ! The Disk allway on :-(

3. Temp is ok . Not to hot.

4. The noise is very low.

Pictures later :-)

In case anyone is interested --

There is a USA reseller of Asus products called ajump.com. Their web page at

http://www.ajump.com/ajump/product.a...2D99%2D4240165

shows the WL-700gE as being back-ordered; but I placed an order last Wednesday and received a shipping notice yesterday evening. Their price is $246, which is startlingly lower than the Euro prices that have been quoted here from other resellers.

Cheers,
