CarbonCore Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 I bought the same Linksys router last year for 2800 from Lamington road. Should be cheaper now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarketTantrik Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 Its a good old reliable router with a Linux based firmware which can be hacked (which explains its popularity). My entire home wireless setup is based on Netgear hardware but now its aging and I really want Wireless N Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarketTantrik Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 Sony has a service center in at Saki Naka in Andheri. You can get your PS3 repaired there. But you'll have to pay for it. No warranty coverage for imported PS3s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightySkate Posted September 8, 2007 Report Share Posted September 8, 2007 @MT: The problem with current routers which support N, is that when connected to a b/g network their speed is automatically throttled down. And the biggest problem is that since n is at the draft stage it's not guaranteed that it'll work when the final n specifications are released. I also read somewhere that the final standard will be finalized by Sept 08 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also read somewhere that the final standard will be finalized by Sept 08 As long as you buy complementary Wireless N products from the same company, you are guaranteed to have a great experience. @Sam: Go for the Linksys router at this point. You can always junk it later when the "N" specs are finalised. And the PS3 doesnt support N in any case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarbonCore Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 The movies are in rebate form. You buy PS3 or any other Blu-Ray player, then register it with blu-ray.com and they'll send five blu-ray movies of your choice from the list to your registered address.

CarbonCore Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 you can tell you friend to buy PS3 now and send the filled up form to Texas. Then he can send the console to you right away and then later on, he can send the movies whenever he gets them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarbonCore Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 I would've certainly taken the offer if I was in US. You don't loose anything besides coupla bucks in postage stamps and few minutes to fill up the form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
