Dlink Di-624 And Dwl-g650 108mbps

[daMANiack]

Hi,

I live in Australia and hardware prices are really bad for some stuff, well most stuff I suppose.

Take for instance this following package:

DLink DI-624 108Mbps wireless router

DLink DWL-G650 108Mbps wireless cardbus (PCMCIA) for my laptop

Price at BUY.COM for you guyz is US$124.99 less US$40 (mail-in rebate) = US$84.99

Price for me in Australia is A$355 (this is my wholesale price as I'm a PC builder) or about US$265.

Code:

http://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=10344769&mp=81&loc=101

I suppose what I'm wondering , if someone could get for me from BUY.COM, with my money ofcourse , and ship to me in Australia.

I'm in particular looking for hardware revision "C" for both the DI-624 and DWL-G650.

This is one of the problems with the goods in Australia, I can get a DI-624 "C" but the DWL-G650 appear to be only "B" and I've heard the "C" is the only hardware revision I sould get.

I'm not sure, maybe I could send you the US$124.99 and you keep the US$40 rebate to cover the shipping and your trouble. I realize there would be a delay from you paying for the Air-Express shipping to you receiving the rebate, but this could be worked out I'm sure.

If anyone is maybe just a little interested in helping this poor soul , could you let me know please.

Wow.. that is a pretty good price for 108Mbps..

Does it work with other wireless standards too? .11b, .11a, etc.

Cause $84 (us) $100 (cad) is worth it.

Hi,

I'm no expert, but I think if you mix A, B and/or G, your speed may get reduced some what.

108Mbps is the optimum speed, other factors may influence this, like distance from DI-624 to PC/laptop etc.

Also, you'll need all DLink 108Mbps devices, other brands I don't think will work at that speed.
