Need a two-port wireless print server
 
Something decent and cheap (if that's not an impossible combination).

Currently have an old setup that has very little in the way of memory, so big jobs often choke and stall.

The Belkin 2-port one can be found for what appears to be a very decent price.

Hawking makes a 2 usb 1 parallel one for $80 or less

Dlink has a 4 usb port one for $58 (DPR-1260) at pcmall

The netgear WGPS606 2 usb ports, 4 network port one is $35 at www.sizzletwist.com if price is your driving factor.

Thanks for the suggestions!

I should have mentioned that I have the netgear one, but it seems to be dying.

This Belkin one gets pretty good reviews and can be had even less expensively.

At the risk of sounding stupid, may I ask why you don't just order the Belkin? If it is cheap and suits your needs, is there any reason to not just go with that one?

I've used the really cheap ones from Fry's before (Airlink 101) and they are usually pretty decent, but they are mainly made for 2-way operation with a multifunction unit.

Good point :)

Is it important whether a wifi print server is USB 2.0 or 1.1?

Oh my goodness.

My eBay-gotten Belkin 2-port wireless print server arrived today.

I have never, ever in my life set up a piece of network equipment that was so dead-on simple to setup and use. It simply worked. Beautifully.
