    Hi,

    I'm in need of a rather budget, but good wireless router to use at my home for my newly purchased notebook. Besides the notebook, I have a desktop which is connected to the internet, by cable.

    So my question is if this Philips router is any good and if anyone has good experience with it :p

    and if that thing is total crap, which linksys will suit me better? the Linksys WTR54GS or Linksys WRT54GC? And is there any difference between the connection range/receive of these two models?

    thanks in advance :cool:
