Help Us Improve the Charts

Our NAS, Wireless and Router Charts are some of the most often-visited parts of SmallNetBuilder. But what can I do to make them even more useful to you?

Give me your wish list of features that you’d like to see added to the Charts (and yes, I already know, more products). Is there a filter that you’d like? A different way of viewing data? Missing data that you’d like added?

I can’t promise that we’ll implement every suggestion. But before I go off an implement my personal list of Charts improvements, I’d like to know what you think.

Please let me know by leaving a Forums comment via the link below. (You don’t have to register, but the comment will be moderated.) Or, if you’d rather, send me your comment directly. Thanks.

Why Build Your Own NAS?

Bill Meade's Build a Cheap and Fast RAID 5 NAS How To has continued to be one of our most popular articles, even though now it's almost two years old. But with the price of ready-to-buy RAID5 1 TB NASes as low as $500, does it still make sense to roll your own?

The Gotcha in Draft 11n Wi-Fi Certification

My previous post describing the D-Link DIR-655 / DWA-652's failure to switch from 40 MHz to 20 MHz channel mode when encountering a legacy WLAN, might be counter to what D-Link says is the expected behavior. But I have found that it is neither a violation of IEEE Draft 2.0 nor the Alliance's Draft 2.0 11n Certification.

Since that post, I've exchanged emails with D-Link and spoken with both Atheros and the Wi-Fi Alliance to try to find out how the D-Link products could not be performing as D-Link had described, yet receive Wi-Fi Draft 2.0 11n Certification.
