Wired or wireless?

If you have a 20Mbit cable internet connection (lucky you, I only get 8Mbit), you'll want to look for a router that has gigabit Ethernet ports (these typically have a 100M internet port verses others that have a 10M which would slow your connection (I think if the ratings are the same)). I like the Linksys routers (They are made by Cisco and I did a few CCNA courses in High School), most of their Pre-N/Wireless N routers should do the trick. The WRT330N (or higher number such as WRT350N and WRT600N) has gigabit Ethernet plus 802.11B/G/N wireless and is a very good router. I have the WRT600N, it is overkill, but a vast improvement over the WRT54G that I had previously.
