I just got another PC the other day and I'm looking to set up a wireless network between the two.

First of all what would be the best wireless router to network the two PCs from the list here ? (The 2nd PC would be like 25-30 feet away from router and used mainly for going on the internet, networked gaming, and maybe some small file downloading and storage)



Also will I need a wireless network adapter for my PS2 or are there wired ports on the wireless router? and if I need an adapter which would be the best (so that I don't experience any lag) and will there be any compatability issues if I have to get an adapter that isn't made by Netgear?

w00t,

All of those routers seem appropriate from what I saw in a quick glance over them. The top one offers the best coverage but is probably the most expensive. The second one in the list is a "pre-N" router, which means that, when the faster 802.11n wireless LAN protocol becomes available in the next few months, this router will support it. Although you'll need 802.11n network cards to take advantage of the increased speed. The others listed also seem appropriate for your current requirements and will probably be cheaper.

Almost all routers come with 4 wired (RJ45) ports to allow you to connect other devices with a standard RJ45 network cable.

Hope that helps

Okay thanks
