2 in 1Wired or Wireless? and router recommendation?

Postby beau_boy04 on Mon Jun 20, 2005 11:27 am

Do you have a wired or wireless home networking?

I already got my dsl equipment from SBC/Yahoo DSL partnership and now trying to decide on which WIRELESS router to go for

I have 3 choices:

1. Linksys
2. Netgear
3. D-Link

I used to have a wired linksys router and it worked perfectly but now im going wireless. What do you guys recommend?

I'd go with D-Link man. We have a wireless connection at my work and it blows ass.
Preparation will only take you so far. After that you've got to take a few leaps of faith.
