    I'm looking for a wireless router in the $50-$70 price range, I'm thinking about a Linksys maybe the WRT54GL, I have a 54kbs net connect but I'm thinking of upgrading so the faster the better. I will only be using it the house so range is not a problem.

    Any suggestion.

    "Range" has to be a consideration if you include both distance and walls. I use my Trendnet wireless router only in the house, but I get a weak signal because I use it in my room on the 2nd floor with the router hooked up to a desktop in the basement.
