Hey all.

I'm getting set to go off to college and I am looking for an inexpensive router to connect my laptop and my desktop to the internet. After doing some research, the number of options are slightly overwhelming and no one can seem to come to a general consensus.

I had originally intended to get simply a wired router, but if the price is right, I could go wireless. Anyone have any suggestions/experiences that could help me choose a good one?

Wired or wireless home routers are close enough in price overall so just get the wireless. I have used Linksys and D-link. Take your pick.
