I need a wireless router, not too expensive under 100 dollars. That runs under OpenSuse 13.1 and I can add my wife’s HD as another device. My current Cisco E900 is worthless, it will only do Windows and MAC’s. Need in a hurry
I recently (February) bought a Buffalo Air Station (from Amazon). It has been working well with linux, Windows and Android systems.

could block Linux/Mac users…how does it do that?

i’d say check here this has the manual for the router, you just need to log on to the web interface to set it up. no need to install software. dont fall for the idiot traps of having to install software to run some type of external hardware like a router.

I have a Linksys (now Cisco) router that initially could not be set up
from Linux; the web interface was designed so that it would only work
from MS IE. It’s a while ago now but I recall contacting them and
expressing my displeasure. They later provided updated firmware in
which the web interface would work with other browsers.

the user manual specifies IE and any Firefox after v3, so the OP
only needs to set up the router in hand…

I am using netgear N600, bought it last year for less than 100 bucks
to replace the cisco I returned because it was faulty.
In the box it says linux compatible.
We are using it for the ipad, mac, iphone, camera with android and the network printer and of course openSUSE.
