Well, Gwalk900, I have no idea about data usage, etc. and figure I'm probably better off by not tinkering with it to find out cuz then I'd feel compelled to tinker when I'm really a novice in such things. If it ain't broke...... But, range I could use. My casita is two rooms, very small by today's standards but all I need at this age. When I move to my front porch, I have to go to 4G, then back to router when I come in. Now what's funny is that while I'm on my porch, I have to be careful I'm not on my sister's router and that is maybe 100' away, whereas mine maybe 15'. Now i figure that's because mine has to go through a metal wall, but really? But in the country, we expect to put up with inconsistencies and I'm glad to pay for the privilege of having internet at all regardless of data usage, lost data bites, etc. Every router I've owned has about a 2 year life so I'm glad to hear you all comment. And, I'm definitely going to file this one away when I get ready to replace this one.
