umm not sure about the linksys router I have heard bad things about them myself. I use D-link myself and have no complaints with them .

Good place for reviews on networking stuff

Yeah I used a D-link router and never had any problems.

I use a Motorola Modem, and I use a Linksys Wireless B as my router, and I have a "dumbed down" D-Link router that is serving as a switch.

No problems...

Your ISP should supply you with a modem capable of all the download speed.

i dont want to rent their modem though it costs more in the long run, id rather buy my own. can you guys post up some ones that would work good. thanks!

Any of the Motorola SB5 series would be a good choice.

This is the one I have and if you have the connection, it supports speeds up to 30 megabits per second.

This is the one I have, Highly recommended http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_e/103 ... 01&x=0&y=0

Allthough it looks like they have a newer version

Not sure how much you are looking to spend if you are looking at 100.00 per card/unit then

I've always had good luck with motorola surfboard DOCSIS modems.

But I've had a less than fun experience with my Dlink wireless-G router.

My advice to you is to narrow down your choices and then research the suckers online. Im sure plenty of sites have rated/reviewed a ton of routers.
