[dba-Tech] modem/router

The success of this wireless may depend on the wiring.  I tried it with
Homeplug from Gigafast and never was able to make any successful
connections.  That was one of the first efforts at the technology and my
house is 40+ years old with equivalent wiring.  Maybe the devices are
more advanced now and the chances of success are increased.

When I switched to regular wireless it installed with no problems.

I had all kinds of problems with wireless in the house.  Replaced it
with
these:

http://www.amazon.com/NETGEAR-XE102-Wall-Plugged-Ethernet-Bridge/dp/B000
2IHP
58 

Foolproof.  Just plug and play.  No software.  No configuring.  Perfect
- like a hardwired connection.

I admit, I was confused! :) Did I use the wrong term?
