[Tethered_Limbs]

Im going to put in my order tonight for the Jr. and a eheim feed-air. Wondering what the cheapest adapter is to get it hooked up.

This looks pretty cheap. What are you guys with Apexs'/RKEs' using?

I'm a fan of more control. If my Apex was too far from ma router, I would hook it up to a DD-WRT compatible router. If you're into comp stuff, that'll make sense probably; if not, it's not too . I can pm more info.

Yup, an old router sitting in the closet running DD-WRT as a wireless bridge.

Sort of...I'd rather buy from newegg or amazon and flash it to DD-WRT myself. I don't trust other ppls handiwork on something I can do myself, lol...the N gaming adapter that adam recommended would work fine too. How far are we talking away from the router? Do you run an "N" network?

 

[Tethered_Limbs]

its downstairs. maybe 30-40 feet. yea i got the "N"

 

[Tethered_Limbs]

actually idk,

Yah, I just use the Netgear one for my Apex. Works great.
I went to BestBuy and bought it:

Dd-wrt is a great way to go. Newer buffalo routers come with dd-wrt loaded on them.
