Sorry if this is the wrong section, move it if it isnt :)

Anyways i currently have a terrrrrible zonet wireless router, basically it has no range. I will be using my laptop, and a xbox360 ethernet cable will be connected and i will also be *whisper*torrenting* a little bit as well. My price range is anything of quality under 60$

So far my top choice: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833124190

Thanks for all suggestions :)

I have this router and it has been a TANK. I have always had tons of issues with all other brands/models and this thing rocks. My PS3 loves it. I keep it in my basement and my PS3 is roughly 30' away from it and through the floor. I have been able to get a signal 120' away from my house outside as well. I haven't flashed mine to any of the fancy firmwares you can use to increase options and range as well. All I can say is that if you buy it you will not be disappointed.

PS: I have Vonage internet phone service as well so I demand 100% uptime. As long as my house has electricity, I have had no connection drops ever.

Well i have TP-Link TL-WR642G 108M wireless router and its been working without a problem so far.

But id recommend of getting 2 antenna version if there is alot of walls and other stuff beatwean computer and router as it gives wider working range and 300M wireless connection to router.
