Might get a new wireless router

[wstarcraze]

I don't know what one to get. Which one would you guys recommend?

so sorry, i don't wanna hijack your thread, but it seems relevant.

i intend on buying a wireless router in the near future, however i don't know what type i should purchase...or how to hook it up.

i don't want to buy something that isn't capable of working with the modem/laptops i've got.

I usually stick to linksys. They are much cheaper then the other brands and they have a decent amount of bandwidth from a distance. However don't expect them to last very long. I have gone through three thus far counting this and last year.

Linksys is good...DD-WRT makes it even better.

Is wireless N any good? (BTW My current Belkin G Plus MIMO Router keeps dropping the internet connection at a random time)

The Wireless N standard hasn't been finalized yet if I recall properly.... Any Wireless N device is a Draft N device.

Linksys ftw. We've had a WRT54G for nearly five years now, and haven't any problems with it whatsoever.

Linksys has my vote too. I have the same router billy has and couldn't be happier with it.

I second that.

That's the same router I have, Billy.  I've only had to reset it once in four years, and it still works fine today.

I've had my Linksys router since 2005 and haven't had one problem with it either.

I have a NETGEAR router. It's ok...though. I have a G router that signals the whole house...I have also heard Linksys is a good brand.

Linksys is good, also had nice luck with a netgear router. Make sure you can put DD-WRT on it. Really adds a lot to any router

Surprisingly, my family has used the same Linksys router since like 1999 or 2000.

I'm sorry but I have to contradict everyone else. I will NEVER buy another Linksys router. I had three Linksys routers and an access point die on me. After the three Linksyses I got a Netgear and a D-Link and they both broke as well. I couldn't get a router to last for more than a year. I currently use a Buffalo WBR2-G54 that I've used for at least 4 years that I have only had to restart maybe 3 times *knock on wood*, I also use two AirPort Expresses to extend my wireless and those have worked flawlessly as well. Personally I'd recommend an AirPort Extreme but that's up to you. BTW even though it is an Apple product it uses the same 802.11 b/g/n standard that any other Router uses so it'll work with your PCs.
