I picked up a WRT110 Linksys Router from Sam's Club for $49.

There is a sticker on the box that says 'entry level' N Router however I don't see the 802.11 n specification any where on the box.

Well anyhow I brought it home and I did get a connection but it was not what I was expecting.

My old G band linksys would jump between 2 to 4 bars of connectivity. At about 40% to 60% connection.

This N band has about 3 bars however the connectivity percentage is 84% to 90% per the linksys software.

With this being N band I was expecting 5 bars of signal strength.

Should I return this router for something better? They have a N dual band one for $109 but I don't know if that will give me more range. However that model DOES list the 802.11 n specification.

Advice from the forum would be appreciated.
