Ok so a lot of this lingo is confusing me for me. I know about routers, the concept of bridges/adaptors start to confuse me. Here is what I would like:
My home office is at one end of the house. It will have a Mac Pro laptop, an older Win XP desktop, ReadyNAS NV+ and a wireless (or ethernet enabled) printer/fax/scanner.
On the same floor, but of course opposite end of the house, I have my media center with a TV, Blu Ray, Wii and AVR which are all network-capable.
I was thinking Linksys E3000 in the office, and then what for the media area? Someone mentioned the dlink wireless bridge which has 4 gigbit ports to "hardwire" the media components. I also saw the Linksys Powerline unit, but I've heard powerline units are hit or miss.
What would be the "best" set up to get a reliable and strong connection to my AVR. Does it need to be 2.4ghz or 5ghz, does it have to be simultaneous or just dual band N (and then I select 2.4ghz or 5ghz??), etc, that is where the options overwhelm me!
