[Review] EnGenius ESR9850 – affordable router with Wireless N & Gigabit

[Kiwi8]

Since Challenger doesn't sell this - any other shops at Funan, since I am nearby?

Since u are already at Funan, then why not do a short walk (yes I know it's still quite a distance, but still walkable) to Carrefour at Suntec?

I bought one set, left one set $77.

Why you guys never leave 1 set for me to buy and hack?
I can try improve the router capabilities with mods so all existing owners will stand to gain?!
Oh well...

where can I buy 5dbi antennas?

 

[mikeeeey]

I bought mine many years back at funan.

But i must emphasise that getting the antenna doesnt guarantee more signal. Placement and position still play an impt role

 

[ArcticCheetah]

Still have any stocks left?
Planning to Mod this cheapo router to get Mod kicks.
