D-Link DGL-4300 Gigabit Ethernet Wireless Router

Tuesday 12th September 2006, 23:07

I’m currently struggling to get the D-Link DGL-4300 to play nicely with the network here at home. I keep getting problems when doing large transfers over the wireless network.

It accepts (most?) normal slide magazines. So it’s not even necessary to move the slides about, just slot in the magasine and go… I should [...]
