Why no support for NTFS?

 

Why no support for Wireless Bridging? Or is my understanding wrong that WDS is wireless bridging?

Aveyer,

I will know that when support gets our testing unit soon. Frankly, I can't wait to get my hands on this router either!

 

johnbom,

Our engineers have not determined NTFS write support in Linux to be stable enough to be suitable for any of our devices. As far as I know, WDS or "Wireless Bridging" hasn't been an option with ANY of our 802.11n-series router models. Keep in mind 802.11n is still in its Draft stage, and so-called Wireless Bridging wasn't even part of the 802.11b/g standards, it was an additional feature from a few different chipset manufacturers. As of right now I know of no 802.11n router that has WDS-like functions.

   I've seen somewhere that it's supposed to have an amplifier, hope it does, really interested in getting this router.

Folx, 

BBWatch has an interesting article (shimizu/25299.html) on the WZR-HP-G300NH router:

 http://bb.watch.impress.co.jp/cda/shimizu/25299.html

in Japanese, but many interesting pictures, and screenshots with performance data; automatic translation reads funny but still useful ;)

 

if direct link is removed by forum moderator, try google

 "site:bb.watch.impress.co.jp WZR-HP-G300NH 25299"

 (google syntax "site colon bb dot watch dot impress dot co dot jp WZR-HP-G300NH 25299" )

 

 

Colin137:

Do you know when the GPL source code for WZR-HP-G300NH build will be available for download under:

 http://opensource.buffalo.jp/gpl_wireless.html ?

Can you help ensure bootloader files will be included or you have no input on that?

( myself, waiting to purchase till GPL tarball is up :) )

I wouldn't begin to know about your question to me. I will see if I can find out, though, no promises :)

All,

 

I've downloaded the WZR-HP-G300NH manual and am a bit concerned.  The screen shots would seem to indicate that there are a lot of configuration options but the manual doesn't go into them.  So, is there a detailed manual available?  If not, could you at let tell me if the device has SNMP support.

 

S,

I believe the manual writers didn't want to make it a 30 MB PDF file :)

 

The help button in the web interface is a good resource: it will go into detail what the configuration options mean.

 

As of right now, I do not know if the WZR-HP-G300N supports SNMP, but I will try to find out for you.

It looks like this router does not support SNMP.

   Thanks for checking Colin.  Guess I was hoping for too much.  Hopefully better docs/specs will be forthcoming.

   Last post from the moderator on 4/1 said they might be available tomorrow, April 24th.  Haven't heard anything further in a few weeks.  Provantage.com has them available for special order, but who knows what that means.  Guess we'll find out tomorrow morning.

Hello, moderators.

 

The router is not available on Buffalo site, nor anywhere else as of this morning.  Has the tentative date been pushed out again?

 

 Thx in advance.

This morning, I'm seeing stock quantities in our internal stocklist, so this should be shipping within a few days.

We have to do our final examination of the finished product first. Even though we've been through all the development phases of research, hardware, firmware, testing, manual, QSG, etc, it still requires a retail exam before release.
