I am looking to get a new router within the next couple of months and am going to be doing some gaming(WOW and PS3). I would like to know a good gaming router that doesn't cost a lot of money and can support multiple computers at the same time for online gaming. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I'm no expert in networking but i can tell you a few things from personal experience. Buy something name-branded and stay away from cheap-o stuff. For example, i once bought 100mb switches for my basement to connect to my main router. These switches could not handle some games and it took forever to figure out they were the culprit.
If you have a router already - for example if your ISP provides one, and you're getting another one to have additional ports in another room, make sure that the router you're buying can be turned into a switch. This is done by disabling NAT - so the main router gives out IP's and the secondary just passes the traffic along. I've also had a "router" that could not act as a switch. In short, any good name brand current router should do the trick! |

I am looking for a good wireless gaming router. I have a basic Belkin wireless b/g router right now, but it is slow and is slowly dying.
