| Stever89 said: I usually hear good things about Linksys, so two routers I was looking at were this regular one, and this beastly "gaming" one. I'm not quite sure I understand the difference between G, B, and N connections, but as long as they can work with my computer and my Wii/DS, that's all that really matters. Hopefully somebody can help me out? Thanks. |
Linksys is a decent brand with generally reliable functionality unlike certain other brands such as D-Stink (D-Link).
The letter are easy N > G > B.
For a personal network where you're not serving wireless to dozens of gaming machines at the same time, I think the N router is way overkill. Within about 3-5 years you'll probably want to replace your router again and newer technologies will be available by then (N will be more mainstream, Y will hopefully have more support, and maybe even a few better choices).
Having personal experience in the past with the WRT54GS, I can tell you that it's reliable and can handle most of what I'm betting you want. It also supports hacked firmware if you want to go that route as well. ^_^
