Hi guys,
now i'm using my 4/5YO wireless b router (linksys) to post his. hhaa .
its WIRELESS B !
tried out speedtest and its like 4.72 mbps download and my internet plan is 100mbps. lol !
can anyone recommend me a good router <~$150 .
i do -bt- , -surf web- and -game-.
which sld i get ?
Linksys (my previous experience with this brand is good)
D-link (freaking DIR300 cannot get internet, bad exp =[ ) or
others?
so currently, i'm kind of super bias towards linksys as its durable to me.
what about its performance ?
thanks guys. :o

zzzzzz...if got nothing to recommend might as well not post la. if he go buy a $10 G router how is that even going to do justice for his 100mbps internet plan.
anyway, TS i think u should get a N router like DIR-6XX so it will not bottleneck ur internet speed. i upgraded to DIR 615 from DIR 300 while on a 100mbps plan and my download speed increased a lot (from 30mbps to 70mbps) and i do not get disconnected from the router when torrenting anymore.

im using wireless N, but i think for u the router will run in G mode instead because u only have wireless G. if u want it to run in N mode u need to have wireless N as well.
