New Around Here
Hi!
I'm in a new apartment and while I only have a g-device at the moment, I'm planning on getting an N-capable laptop soon. I've been looking through all the forum posts and articles from the last year or so and am having trouble finding a device that's better than average on stability. There's a lot of emphasis here on bleeding-edge performance.
Let me go over my usage patterns and needs. I'm a gamer (hence my hatred of disconnects) and would use ethernet whenever gaming and use ethernet to hook up my Xbox 360 (which is used mostly for streaming these days). Because I'm mostly a PC gamer, I need expansive port forwarding tables, high simultaneous connections and stability. Wireless performance is not as critical, nor is range (small apartment). I also might keep a separate g and n network if the g-router I had in storage works when it shows up (it's being shipped across the country at the moment).
I don't need a media server on the device either since I just bought the Pogoplug that was on sale and advertised on SNB's front page Techbargains widget.
So, what wireless-n router would you recommend for someone who isn't afraid to run ethernet, wants something that does its job as a router well, and is decent at wireless-n?
THANKS!
