Review of D-Link Wireless G Router WBR-1310 - wireless router by
aston50
Advantages: easy install
Disadvantages: very short range
The D-Link WBR-1310, to put it simply is a terrible product. It is one of the cheaper routers out there, but even with a low price it is not worth a purchase.
Personally, I got this router for free with my laptop (my guess being that they were trying to get as rid of as many of these worthless things as they could).

However, when I check my NAT tpe it turns out to be type 3. To fix this I had to go to my router settings and open up some of the ports so that the PS3 can work properly online. So, I put in all the ports and that, and my NAT type is still type 3. What's even worse is that the D-Link has a special "gaming mode".

greekmiss
Advantages: Labels automatically - wireless
Disadvantages: can be troublesome during first use
...a similar product named the Eye-Fi memory card. Eye-Fi also provides this memory card called the Eye-Fi Explore that offers a little extra bonus feature from the plain Eye-Fi network card. You pay about $30 more for it - totalling about $130. This product is an SD-Card that works on pretty much any digital camera that takes SD-Cards for memory, which allows you to not only store pictures to it but wirelessly move pictures and video from your camera ... ...The difference between the normal Eye-Fi network card and the Explore card is that the Explore card has the capability of automatically adding geographic location labels to your photos.
Now there are some issues with this card but not much. The card doesn't seem to work very well with Kodak cameras - and the company knows this. The company tech support will try to work with you if you have the card and a Kodak camera but can't do too much to resolve ...
