Sale: D-Link Cuts the Price on its N Routers
It's still listed at $75 on D-Link's site, but we notice that Best Buy's prices already reflect the price cut.

Does this work with Mac?

The specs say it is compatible with OS 10.4 .
I have found that D-Link is both user-friendly and Mac-friendly. I have an older DI-614 Wireless Broadband Router (used with both Win and Mac machines), and it's great.

But you will need a repeater to get it past 100 ft. There is a reason D-link is willing to go below $50 for a wireless router!! The router has a reputation to overheat, constant DHCP errors, short life and constant need of rebooting.
Buy a cheap router, you get a cheap router. Wait for the G3...be patient my friends. If you need a router, you just have to plop down the $100 for a solid one.
Or move to Minneapolis, MN for citywide WiFi (Read More...)
...follow the white rabbit...

ffffffrabbit - I live in area 1, in a neighborhood, and we've never gotten the city-wide WiFi. It's been extremely disappointing for us. D'oh!
Glad your friend has been able to get it.

It should be noted that the above router pictured is the DGL-4500 and will set you back $200.
The $49.99 N-Router is the DIR-615 and isn't quite as nice looking. http://images.bestbuy.com/BestBuy_US/images/products/8305/8305568_sa.jpg
