Wireless router dilemma

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
Well, i'm not sure if this is the right forum for this, but here goes:

But anyway, I recently ordered a Hypersonic Aviator GX7 a few weeks ago (not here yet), and haven been trying to find the best gear to set up a wireless network. I would really like to go with wireless-A since it is on the 5ghz frequency and the 2.4 Wireless-G ones would probably get interference from my cordless phone. I've heard that the Linksys ones are superior to the other brands, but some say that their A+G router gets only about 35 feet of range. So i'm a bit confused as to what to do. I've never set up a wireless network before, so im rather new at this sort of thing. So far it looks like i'll be forced to make a choice between interference and range. I really would hate to have to lose a connection every time we use the cordless phone, but 30 something feet of range certainly wont be enough...

Sooo, summed up my question is: Is there a router out there that you guys have used that doesnt require a compromise between range and interference? So far ive had little luck with it. And if not, what is the best router out there?

Thanks for any help.

i've been using this router with great results:

netgear

it cost a bit more, but i feel it is well worth it. it actually has two separate receivers for wireless a and wireless b/g. reception is better than any other router i have (linksys, smc, belkin).
