Hi I have setup a unreal tournament server
useing the netgear 314 router works great
had the linksys befsr41 what a mess.
players could play good for 10 min tops then would get stuck in the floors in walls and stuff. so I got the netgear 314 hosted about 56 games so far runs great.
the linksys also did stuff in hosting sprint cars. cars in the air in the wall. as far as nascar works I dont know it might run good with the linksys.
so far the netgear is the way to go I would say not as easy to set up as the linksys but just a little more reading and a few tweaks and off it runs. good luck.

any input on a host server.
getting a host server for nascar3 & 4

I will be on a cable-modem,
question which router will work the best?

system:
AMD 1000 mhz t-bird with 512MB pc133 sdram. Should i get more?

should i use win 98 or 2000?

I am looking for any info? on best set-up.

or if anyone knows of a site with this type of info on it, i will be very grateful.

Been down the same path. The NetGear is more of a plain jane unit, not as user friendly as the Linksys, but better quality components, I had the same probs with the Linky hosting UT and Rune, tossed it, got the NetGear, end of those probs.
