That might be it. My iPod speakers will charge the iPod but not when they're running off battery.

My router has died. I am connected to the internet with a cable. I am TETHERED!!! Anyone have a suggestion for a new router? I currently have (had) a D-Link DI-614+ 2.4 Ghz router. I live in a one bedroom apartment, so it doesn't need to be too powerful, I would think.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
I've been using this one for about three years. The ones linked to upthread look good, but what I've got still works fine.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Vortex, how dead is it?
If there is power, it might be resurrected with the hidden reset button trick.

This is what I use and it's been flawless [link]
It's good for Internet use, but if you do big data transfers between your own computers, then spending extra for a wireless N router is worth it. At a similar price you might as well go N too, but I haven't used any so I don't have any data to point you toward one.
