    I plan on updating my wireless network in the near future. Are there any routers that support both N and G (without downgrading N to G speeds) for <$75.

    or local kijiji/craiglist. I just picked up a Linksys WRT610N v1 for $60 CAN :)

    If you have an existing G router, you can pick one up that supports 5Ghz, and use the 2.4Ghz as an AP for the slower clients.
