Hi everyone,
I just got a Dell Vostro 1000 and I need a wireless router so I can get internet access at home.
It comes with the standard "Dell Wireless 1390 802.11g Mini Card Wireless" . I don't have a very big place and thats an understatement, so I don't need something that has a long range, just something reliable that will get the job done of allowing me to check my emails and transfer files from my laptop to my pc. I have absolutely no clue when it comes to wireless routers, so if anyone can please suggest a brand+model I should get, would be most appreciated.
Thanks.

I did some reading on the the WRT54G , seems like its a mixed impression, alot of happy and pissed off owners. I'm confused :( .
Im thinking of perhaps getting this http://computers.pricegrabber.com/ [...] rch=router
