        B will run at least $69.... why not spend $10 bucks more and get the stability and speed of G.

        B is old technology.

              plus, G is backward compatible with B, so if you got older systems running B already, you're covered.

                    one thing I've noticed though is the frequency is messing with one of my LCD screens.... others are fine, but one is kinda wavy... and it's driving me nuts.

                        D-Link is also a good choice

                          Netgear is the best wireless in my opinion.

                          The 108 Mbps is amazing. The laptop speed now is flying.

                            heard good things about it..... never tried anything other than Linksys though... I like their interface.

                                also Linksys makes it easy to upgrade firmware and shit right from their website.... which is nice.

                                        Linksys Wireless 802.11g?

                                        Does that come with the Wireless cards? Do I have to buy them also?

                                          yeah... that's just the router. Unless your mainboard has the WiFi built in, you'll need the cards too.

                                                how much range are you using? I can go all over the house with my Linksys....

                                                  My home office is on one side of the house and my bedroom is on the other (kitchen in the middle). 12% signal in my bedroom with the linksys AND booster... and an 89% signal with the netgear, without a booster.

                                                  nothing changed in the house

                                                            definately.... set up the WEP pre-shared key to lock down your WiFi, and disable the SSID broadcast and you should be fine...
