OK, first off, let me preface this by saying I really appreciate all the help you guys have offered.

Now, let me rant (not about you guys). I am very frustrated right now. It seems I can't login to my own server because I'm getting the infamous blank server screen. I've received some very friendly advice in another thread, for which I am very grateful.


Up until now, I have played on EQEmu servers for years. I have NEVER had problems before connecting to servers. But now, all of a sudden, I'm having issues because of loopack? This is ridiculous! lol. Again, not frustrated with anyone here or the EQEmu team. Just venting because I can't believe that all of a sudden I am having problems with this.

That being said, I am DONE trying to configure my piece of crud Belkin router. This is not a thread asking for help with that. Because obviously I have no idea what I'm doing with loopback and all that configuration. What I am curious about, is if some of you guys can suggest a solid router that works out of the box with EQEmu and also provides solid wireless streaming. What are some routers that you guys have had success with?

I have a NETGEAR wnr2000v4, it port forwards and runs wireless like a champ. It also comes with http://routerlogin.net for direct access to do things such as port forward, cut off internet to certain local IPs, etc. It has quite a bit of tools and is a rather good router.

Here is my router on Best Buy's website: NETGEAR wnr2000v4 (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/netgear-wireless-n-router/8998506.p?id=1218007383662&skuId=8998506)
