I've been doing some searching and reading on here, and it seems the consensus is that the best way to share the connection from a dw6000 is to use a switch. I've never used one or am familiar with them, can you guys recommend a couple?

All I'm trying to do is share the the dw6000 connection with my laptop. The dw6000 is currently connected to my pc. I've tried a linksys router I have with no avail. So I'd like to try a 'switch'. May want to connect a third computer in the future. Can you guys point me in the right direction of a good switch to buy?

Thanks!!!

I have a Linksys BEFW11S4 Wireless B Broadband Router hooked to my DW6000 and it works great. I went to linksys website and used the online installer to configure it. Bought it at Walmart for less than $50.00. I have good wireless range and speed.

I have been using a Linksys with a dynamic IP with no problems.....also have great wireless range as well. The Linksys can in a few mins be set up as a switch too.
