Game Adapter = Bridge?
« on: August 03, 2003, 11:57:57 PM »
After reading this article, I was just curious if anyone here knew : Is this game adapter the same as a wireless2ethernet bridge?

I just talked to Linksys support and they said that the Game Adapter would only be used with one device, and not a hub (or switch). I'm not convinced of that answer. Technically, I don't see why it wouldn't work. Does anyone own this thing yet? I want to know if I should get this or the Ethernet Bridge (which costs $50 more).

Actually, checking Price Watch, it's only about a $10 difference nowadays... ($75 for a NetGear 802.11b wireless ethernet bridge, $65 for Linksys's Wireless Game Adapter).

So I guess it's not all that important thens... ^__^

- Edit Note : errr, more like $100... the cheaper one from NetGear seems to not be getting the best of user reviews.... ewwww.... hmmm... I think I'm better off just hoping the price becomes reasonably cheaper when Mario Kart hits...
