If you're looking for a wireless modem, go for Linksys!

beginning to think that maybe it depends on the Dlink modem. My wifi 2640T having a suspiscious blinking problem and WWW browsing is a bit slow. But WoW still acceptable atm although only for Wifi. LAN cable issue. This is my 2nd 2640T modem.

Time to buy linksys and see how it goes. Any model recommendation? Belkin looks pricey in Kuching.

when it comes to networking, ONLY trust dlink or linksys.

for myself im using linksys router/modem thats served me for many many long years (3-6? years give/take or more, i have to check my router's start up/updated firmware date)

for you, it could be other reasons, and power adapter issues are barely the modem's issue itself and can be easily replaced so long you match the socket that plugs into the modem and the voltage required (my dlink router's power adapter failed and i replaced it a few years back, and no problem at all. i replaced it with some random HP power adapter that i bought from LYP too tongue.gif)

a modem that is not used in the tropical climate, or as our old Geography classes teaches us, "Iklim Panas & Lembap Sepanjang Tahun"
