I currently have a linksys G router. A couple of years old, maybe a bit more Im not sure.
I need a faster router. Can I just unplug my current router, plug a new N-router and Im good to go?
I currently have 3 PS3s in my house and I need something that can manage the three of them playing online at the same time. The fastest internet connection I can get is 4mb. I think I currently have 2mb.
What are my options on N routers? Thanks!
-
The PS3s have G adapters, so won't be able to connect at N speeds.
-
You may want to know about Maximum Simultaneous Connections & Total Simultaneous throughput. This is a Router Chart from SmallNetBuilder.

I know that ps3s have G connection. But With an N router, the total bandwith available for the ps3s will be higher wont it? Any good routers?
-
well, the D-link Dir655 is the fastest router out there, but it won't increase your ps3 bandwidth since PS3's use 11G
-
ok I get that. its like this
there is a certain amount of bandwith that my G router has, my three ps3s and laptops each take an amount of that bandwith. Will the available total bandwith be more with an N router? So They get the max they CAN get? And more stability and crap? -
Im asking if there will be a big difference
-
I have the D-Link DIR-655, its great and very relible (N)

If you looking for something stable, 11n is not it. Better off waiting. You may want to see if your current router supports dd-wrt firmware. If you have connections problems due to firmware it a good choice.

i'm using dd-wrt firmware on my linksys wrt300n and will put it on thewrt 600n if they make it available for the 600
Help getting a new router!
