wired speeds wirelessly

I know this subject might not be for this forum but I just wanted to share something with you. If anyone is needing a new wireless router you might be interested in the Netgear 600N. I had an old WRT 54G Linksys and I kept losing my connection, packet loss, slow download speeds etc. I have 30/5 connection speeds. When wired to the cable modem I get around 33 or 32 down,about 5.20 up. Now using my A.W. wirelessly I get 30 or 31 down, 5 up. I took one test at Speedtest.net using NYC as the server and got 33 and 5.3 I mean this freakin' router screams! The price was $129 at BestBuy.

Thanks, it's past time to replace my old WRT54G. I'll check out the Netgear 600N.

This is using my netgear wndr3700



The internet is the limiting factor for my speed, I dont have another pc to test LAN wireless speed.









Edit:



I though I should mention that the router is a dual band wireless-N router. So that means no interference on the 5ghz channel from all the other 2.4ghz wireless routers, phones, etc. But I can still use older wireless-G devices since it is dual band.

I have the same model as you do.The WNDR 3700 This is wireless. I used to get 20 if I was lucky with WRT54G
