Wireless router rebate deal of the week

By Kathy Haines December 10, 2008 10:29 PM

Let me admit right up front, I'm technologically impaired, and should never EVER be trusted to recommend an electronic device. But bargain hunting is a challenge I am up for!! I have the patience of Job when it comes to surfing around looking for sales and rebates. The thrill of the hunt!! And no manuals to read....

I used to have a wireless router on my desktop, so that I could use my laptop all over the house. Since I am technologically impaired, my laptop always connected to my neighbors wireless, rather than mine, but he said he didn't know or care and this worked for me.

So I gave that router to my daughter....then my wireless neighbor moved! Oops! Went shopping for a new wireless router last night, wow, prices have gone up! Online I found a D-Link Rangebuster G router listed at $79.99 retail, on Amazon for $34.99, with a promise of a $30 rebate. And free shipping! If all goes well, the total = $4.99!!

Sounds like a deal to me, I ordered one. Now you geeks out there, let me know how I get this d*&^ thing to work!!
