My new Asus F3SV will have the Intel 4965 wireless card installed. I'm looking to purchase a new router to go along with it, and wondering what success people have had connecting at N-speeds. Any suggestions for routers would be appreciated. I have a Netgear WNR834M at home that has worked great, but this new setup will be going overseas with me. I'm leaning towards a Linksys setup since I'll also be picking up a Linksys Skype phone, but the reviews for the WRT300N and 350N have been poor. Any success or suggestions would be appreciated. The only previous post a search pulled up regarded success with the 4965 and WRT150N. THanks!

If you can hold off the the spec is finallized, you will be better off. If you buy one and want it to be upgradeable to the final spec, Buy v2 Hardware. Earlier firmware versions may not work with the newer spec.

Let's revive this thread: What's currently the the best router to work with Intel 4965 based cards? I am leaning towards the Linksys WRT350n as well. but i've read also about bad experiences with Broadcom based routers.
