Will getting a DIR-655 now suffer later when optical fibre out?

[zhehao]

Hi all,
I am wondering if DIR-655 will affect the performance of the future optical fibre when its out?
Like DIR-655 will not support optical fibre etc etc?
Or optical fibre need a special modem etc etc?

TIA!

There will be a 'modem' you will need first. From there you can connect to any router. Of course, you need to pair your plan speed to a relevant capable router.

I have a 2wire 2701 with me and i planning to bridge with dir-655 now.
But what if next time i upgrade to optical fibre(which i think i will), then i heard need a new modem...how ar?

My mobo is gigabyte lan
My sister laptop is N wireless
My outside computer is G wireless
My Laptop is g wireless.

when u get new internet plan, u will get new modem.

by then u can choose to upgrade ur 655.

if u scared, dont buy lor. u might as well ask what happen when real N 600mbps come out.

avid players dont sexpect to spend more than 2yrs on the same router.

think belkin got gb wan offering.

Hmmm...
What is the connection speed for optical fibre the lowest speed ar?

when optical fibre out, if you subscribe to it, u will get a ont which will convert optic fiber to rj-45

u will then conenct this rj-45 to dir-655

so in another words... YES dir-655 supports the next generation broadband

wow GB WAN. missed it.

at least ur 655 will still be able to get a 1gbps. or rather, thats all a regular consumer will only be able to afford for years to come.



damn now hard pressed between this and G300NH

friberoptic ya it like any other broadband lor u will be given a modem and u can use any router u got

Im using fibreop iN office also
cisco equipment and connect to dlink 4300 working fine

Since its already a gigabit router should be safe
I m also interested in bufflo g300 router as its 11n and gigabit ethernet and cheaper compare to most ppls aim for dlink hehe

g300nh is high powered some more. u can see PK review between g300nh and dir 655.

guess which won ;)

integrated NAS, BT downloader
