I see USR has one... Anyone else?
Both my GF and I have a laptop, wireless on B right now, although we both can go to G... We have a USB printer, and we find ourselves always having to go over to the printer when we need something, and we'd like to just be able to print wirelesly as well...
Would like to get a router that can accomodate this... Any recommendations?

You can get a Wireless USB Adapter for your printer. That plugs into the router and the printer plugs into the adapter. Here is a link for a good linksys one to give you an idea of one.

Seems cheaper to turf my current B router and buy the USR G one with the print server built in than to just add that Linksys to my current setup...

Or you can do that, that would be better yet. It will be more convienent for you and others. What model router do you plan on getting?

U.S.Robotics / MAXg / USR5461 / 125Mbps / Wireless Router with USB Print Server
I'm not worried about the 125 Mbps part of it... we're going from B to G, which for surfing has no impact... only when the gf and I will transfer stuff to each other will we see some differences... -
Looks great, good luck with the new router and if you have any questions, you can always ask us.

Works awesome... all I have to do now is walk around and see how far I can range this...
-
actually you can conect the printer to one of the computers, and use printer sharing on your pcs to print wirelessly.

There will be times when one of the laptops isn't there, so each laptop would need to be also setup for this printer as local... and then we'd have to walk over to it to plug in...
It's been very handy so far to just sit in front of the tv... print something, and then eventually walk over to grab it..
Wireless G with built-in USB print server??
