I was so pleased with the Airport Extreme and the Airport Express that it drove me to poetry.

The original resolution was 960x540 (pseudo-HD ftw).

Well maybe not original, but definitely easier to follow. It appears the how-tos are simply uploaded under a general name - any chance on a non-youtube powered content? (Or even a bigger control panel to allow the original sized video to be displayed)

I guess we can bump it up to 480x360 for video. It's just that the thumbnail provided by youtube only goes up to 320x240.

Nice how to video Graham. 

 I have never had much experience with the Airport Apple router.  I do have a lot of experience with Linksys routers and 3rd party firmware.  I have a Linksys WRT54G version 3 and a WRT54GL router with DD-WRT firmware on them and they give me the best range and you can use them in "repeater bridge" mode for wireless so you can really extend your range.  You can also increase the antenna gains and assign individual antennIcas to transmitt or receive.  Very cool and effective.  I currently have a Linksys WRT600N and I am going to put DD-WRT on once the firmware fully supports all of it's functions.

Very informative video....I look forward to more......

Thanks!

If I can snag a WRT54G at some point I'll load DD-WRT onto to it and do another one for that. I had a Belkin N1 previously but it didn't support bridging or network extension - which set me on the long road of acquiring the AEBS and the AE. It's strange getting yourself into the Airport Extreme mindset - your network becomes more of a closed entity with it (much like the OS X environment) at first glance, but if you know what you're doing you can really open it up and configure it the way you want (much like the OS X environment :smileyhappy: )

Right now I'm trying to think of new topics for videos.
