Does a "gaming" router need a "gaming" modem?
Hi all.
Ive recently been looking into buying a D-Link DGL-4100, and was wondering if its affect will be hampered by not having a "gaming tuned" modem. The DGL-4100 prioritises the most time-sensitive packets, such as ones from gaming, VoIP, streaming and stuff. Will a decent quality but "nothing special" modem still let the router do its job, or will i have to look into a "special" modem too. Thanks, Gareth |

To be honest a "Gaming router" sounds like some sort of con.
Just a guess... Its on eBay or some low-quality website and the only person that says its a 'gaming router' is the person trying to get your money?

Haha thats what i thought at first, but after reading reviews i think it really does work. Might just be QoS, but it works
