    Looking to buy a wireless router for satellite internet. It will be our first satellite service and first wireless router.

    Just got our HP dv9500t that we will be using with the router (only computer that will be hooked up to internet).

    Any suggestions? We were told by Satellite company that it really didn't matter what kind? Is this true?

    What are the differences?

    Comparing these at Walmart? all different prices, so which works best with laptop and would prefer to stay as cheap as possible.

    Will the $50 linksys work just fine?

    Do I have to have one that says its specifically for Wireless N?
