Modem/router?

[killerclan117]

Lets see where to start. I have/had charter. I just upgraded to the new 20mbps internet. So now I need a new modem and router or a combo. I am not really sure of the best setup or if what I have so far is really any good so here is what I have so far:

As you are getting an up to 20mbps feed you might as well go for the latest N wireless rather than G -- the only reason not to is that you must be sure your wireless adapter is also N and from the same brand.

I don't know much about cable modems. I'm surprised your ISP isn't offering their own -- might be a good move as they can't then blame problems entirely on your hardware.

N might not be a bad idea, but I doubt you'll lose much with a G router as G can do up to 54 mbps.

"G can do up to 54 mbps."

Not via wireless it can't (whatever the product claims), max is likely to be 20mbs and average way less.
