Above you'll see wireless Airwaves Survey of my internal wireless network of AP. N2 are 802.11n only even though is shows 802.11g. G+ is 802.11g in turbo mode.

First listing is the DIR-655 A3 1.32NA
Setup in 802.11n mode only.
Wireless Access Point
Home Office (main floor)

SSID is shared with the main 802.11n Wireless Router N AP
I got it running without reboots for 1 month.
So instead of not using the router at all I can now use it to extend the wireless N only range and keep the signal available between to two Wireless N AP for now.

I just added more detail to what I have come across on my own testings. Plus I keep the DIR-655 under the desk up right using the black stand for it with the ANTs tilted. \_|_/

I use only as the AP nothing else. I have is shadow the main AP for N. Both use the Same SSID for N. Just like the Two Buffalo AP for G does. So no matter where I am here I'll be able to lock on to N devices. I have to keep G active for the wife company laptop they're still using G so her VPN and wireless G active when she connects.

The Juniper OAC Airwaves 4 bars max shows how the signal is for DIR-655 I average 120-very good to 150-excellent even on the second floor upstairs from the main. On the main it's 150-excellent.
