Hey guys, i need opinions on a new wireless router. I got to my new apartment today, and the "supplied" router is a POS with 10/100, no gigabit, and wireless g... So i need your help with picking an awesome router.
The network stands as thus, we have a 50 mbps down connection, on the network
wired - 4 desktops
wireless - 3 laptops, 2 xbox 360's, and a roku, possibly another desktop that will be an htpc.
the desktops are used for gaming, the xboxes are used for streaming and accessing the desktops to watch movies on the big tv, and the laptops are used for overnight torrenting (of linux distros of course)...
So theres gonna be an S*** ton of data flowing through this bad boy at any given time, and reliability is huge for a house full of medium to moderate serious gamers.
I'm not really up to par on networking, so thanks guys!!
PS, price is split between the 4 of us, so its not a huge issue, just don't go nuts. like 130 max probably
