Buffalo Technology LPV3-U2

$68.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.newegg.com
manufacturer's support / download web site does not have a section for print servers (so finding product brochure or manual is rather hard; also i would like to see firmware updates).
from www.newegg.com
other thoughts: buffalo does not have very much support information or driver updates on this product, which means they either don't hardly support the product, or it was perfect to begin with.
from www.amazon.com
buffalo loses one point for not having updated installation instructions for the most recent version of osx, and gets 4 solid stars for a product that works!
from Stooge, www.newegg.com
if buffalo is willing to send me a three or four of these things, i'll take the half hour it would take to update the documentation to make this a 5.
from www.amazon.com
i downloaded it, in hopes it would be an update of the useless one that shipped with the server.

you need to download the firmware updater for the ps121 in order to flash the memory.
from www.amazon.com
they need to create an updated version that works reliably with xp sp2, and doesn't rely on the user experimenting to find something that works with their particular network set up.

Linksys Wireless-G WPS54GU2

$160.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
the downside is it doesn't support wpa, so that i had to downgraded the security of my wireless network to 128bit wep, linksys hasn't update firmware since 2003.
from www.newegg.com
if they'd update it to support wpa it would be great.
from www.amazon.com
great site with software/hardware updates.
from www.amazon.com
linksys did say that they'll update the driver eventually, since 80% of printers are now multi-function, but they had no idea when.
from www.amazon.com
they would help me for a few minutes telling me to install some piece of software or update firmware then disconnect me when i informed them i wasn't really sure how to do what they were asking.
