Today (sep 21) I got this Cisco linksys router, Its a pretty good device for a wireless network at home. I live in a 3 floor house and it works everywhere just fine. It's not the fastest router out (actual its the slowest) but it gives you a great speed when you're using the internet or playing an iPod online game. The set up its really easy and fast to do but could be kind of complicated if you are a nob like i was this morning :S all the instructions are on the CD that comes with the device and it tells you all you need to know to setup you router.
The price on this router its not that hi but its not the cheapest thing you'll find in the market, if you want something useful, good quality, fast, and not that expensive this router might be the the best option. (I sounds like I'm trying to sell this thing to you. don't I? I'll Stop now.)
I will not tell you any prices because it can change but here is a link where you can buy it from. view Cisco Linksys e1000 Router
