i need a wireless router, I will spend between 50-80 bucks. Do you have any recomendation? The most heavy use of the internet I do is when looking movies online. The reuter is for home use, just 2 computer and my internet download speed is just 3megas.
Thanks in advance!!

just buy whatever is on sale. your usage isn't particularly heavy, so anything with Wireless-G or -N will work.

I would advise against buying anything that's on sale- you may ens up with a rubber chicken
Now on to the serious part- two consumer routers that I recommend are Netgear WNR3500L and TP-Link TL-WR1043ND- depending on availability and price.
Netgear is slightly better hardware-wise (64MB RAM and 480MHz CPU) while TP-Link is usually cheaper and while not as powerful (32MB RAM and 400MHz CPU) it does have removable (read upgradeable) external antennas.
Both are capable of 300mbps WI-Fi on 2.4GHz range, both have gigabit Ethermet, USB port and are supported by 3rd party firmware like DD-WRT or Tomato.
