It depends on the number of pc's and functions of your setup.

how many pc's are you planning to network? wired or wireless?

Thanks I will look it up and look at it. I was also recommended a DIR-655 Xtreme wireless gigabit router. You know anything about it.

Well that's faster on LAN.Catch is you're pc's should be also using a gigabit adapter to optimize the full speed.

OK well I don't understand it all. New to this wireless business. I have been searching and it talks about the new N compared to the g and b. Which I think the one you recomend is the g. Should I not get the new one?

If you pc's have built-in wireless cards.It's efficient to use Wireless G.But if you want a lot more faster connection,you need a wireless N router and a wireless N adapter of same brand.
