Is there any loss of torque when slowing the router down?

A little, but you compensate with turning it up a little. Make sure you are not using a soft-start router, though. It doesn't like that.

Depends on your floor material, if wood needn't, if cement I'm afraid the signal will drop to very low level and you'd best get a repeater or deployment another router.

Yes! No need to use 'at a slow pace'. I run my Dewalt framer on it without any problems.

It ran fine in the walls, however, I have seen some network slow downs on occasion. I haven't figured out if that's due to the router our the cables.

I didn't specifically notice that the rest of my network slowed down. However, the Cisco unit, as I indicated in my review, is essentially useless with regard to utility and functionality. I strongly discourage this unit.

you do not need anything as long as your router has the standard screw on back, but it is hard to screw on the back of the router. Also it is heavy and keeps falling down but not separating from the router. Make sure yours does not have these deficiencies. I do have clear for my internet which is slow and this makes the difference.

I would not recommend using an AC router speed controller. I have a controller like this, and it works fine on my router, but you don't want to starve a big motor like the Grizzley G2905. Your best bet is to get two 4-step pulleys with 5/8" bore, the sort of setup I see on my Sears bench drill. The motor would best be mounted on a hinged baseplate that has some kind of spring tensioner. It would only take a few seconds to move the drive belt from a higher ratio pair of pulley grooves to a lower one, and vice versa. Your slowest speed (and most power) sees the belt in the smallest pulley segment at the motor end, and the biggest segment at the machine end, which you probably already know.

Depends... if you are close enough to plug into your router direct with a T1 line AND your A/V then no, you do not and u will not lose connection like I do. i have a bridge because my router is no where near my A/V

The bad news is that there is a problem with DHCP on this router, requiring frequent power cycling. The good news is that the opensource dd-wrt firmware completely solves this problem, and adds a bunch of new features to the router. You won't need to, but with the dd-wrt firmware installed you could configure the router to auto-reboot. For more info, see my review:http://www.amazon.com/review/R1GNF11WAIUPJS/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm

You need to hold the button down you use to adjust the depth of the router bit. For tightening the bit I think the depth adjustment needs to be all the way out (shallowest router bit depth), or far enough out that you can fully tighten the router bit before the depth adjustment gets to it's limit.

Most routers today will have a release that allows you to remove the motor from the base, so you pull the motor off and change bits with the motor sitting on top or on a work bench. If not... like my ancient craftsman router in my old table you have to raise the bit up or down to get access for the wrenches from one side or the other of the tabletop or you need to be flexible enough to work both sides of the tabletop at once.

No. Its only connection is thru the USB type thumb looking drive. Will not interfere with router.

Yes. It is variable speed and you will have better control if you slow it down some.

watch the RPMs for your own safety. The accessory arbor on radial arms is typically used for 1/2 router bits.

No; You may compare it to an antena which helps you reach the router with ease. It provides you a longer reach than with the regular one in your computer.

The horsepower rating of your router shouldn't have anything to do with that vibration. If your router normally does not vibrate, then I would suspect that the router bit is not perfectly straight (causing a wobble), or it is not inserted correctly and tightened sufficiently.

I don't know where you'd get a better router. I would use it on a routertable only, verify the rpms on the bit, and take small bites.
