What do you use/recomend? I will be hooking it to a dlink 504t, with 2 desktops (ethernet), two laptops ( mac and pc), wii and iphone. Am looking at the apple airport extreme base station as it is N dual band with USB for wireless printer serv etc.
Cos

ive got a dual band N belkin that didnt cost much at all, its good to have the two seperate networks and to keep the iphone and other smaller bits on the lower band.

Talk to a bloke called aaron at www.cormain.com.au

He provides great service and the prices are generally good.

I just had a look at this router, looks good . Only if you got a deep pocket though

ewww D-Link, ive personally had issues with a couple of d-link routers.
I highly recommend netgear WNR3500L pretty cheap for what it does, if you want some high end routers check out the WNR3700 with dual band.

PCDIY have cheep prices for the two.

of course ive never had internet to actually test it with but its amazing rape and lets me use my iphone to control my laptop to read 20gb MKV's off a NAS in my bedroom

Mate i use a Billion Wireless BiPAC 7800N, 4 x Gigabit ethernet ports and high speed wireless, has heaps of features and seams to be quite fast. Though not what you would call cheap, but there are new models out now with more bells and whistles for the same price.

To whom I ask. Let's be specific Karma lol

Got my WNR3500L in the mail (along side my 10GB of ram xD ) the router is awesom, user friendly UI, straightforward installation, the USB port is convienient for me since im like 15 M away from the router and printer, gigabit ports, and Wireless -N /
one downfall i found.
Settings wireless channel on it = fail best stablility i found was on Channel 7
Router mac address must be same as main computer - tho it should set it automatically i had to set it manually. no big fuss, works a charm, im capped atm so i cant really test major differences, tho my old router was 100mbit ethernets.

Also, some routers outthere work both as modems and routers, D-Link are the most out there.
