    Hey,
    I am looking into range extenders and I found 2 at BestBuy, but I thought I would get some information on them first. (I searched this forum for a topic like this, my apologies if there was one that I did not see.)
    -----

    -First the D-Link
    http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=6759778&type=product&id=1088680027236

    -And the Linksys
    http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=6683314&type=product&id=1083711426745

    -----
    My router is a D-Link I believe, but I assume that there would be no compatibility issues with the linksys, right? Oh, and yes, I'm running on wireless-B still, I think they're both compatible.

    Anyways, I was just checking if anyone on this forum has any of these products, and could point me in the right direction.
    Thanks,
    --Hellmanns
