A group of computers running different OS’s can often cause one to blame the router, when it is really a non-compatibility issue or channel interference because everyone in the area has the same router schemes..

I haven't had a problem with that (using Linksys).

Right now we have (2) W2k Pro machines, (1) XP Home machine, (1) XP Pro machine, (1)Vista home machine and (1) Ubuntu Linux machine running fine on a router and switch.

For the most part, it was "plug and play".

I had some issues but I am a wireless junkie. I have bluetooth as well, and use voice commands and the like for my network and audio. I have lot's of signal and I need to do some manual configuration to eliminate it. I also have distance issues....It's a long house.

I just went through some more issue, when I switched to wireless N. The router is supposed to run all three possible network security protocols simultaneously, but it does not like it much. What it does, is use a lower range antenna which affects the newer "N" speed improvements.

This caused me to upgrade my modems, and put some on ethernet. I have nine on the network in a single family home......LOL....
