    The D-Link WBR-1310 Wireless G Router is on sale at Future Shop Canada for 30CAD. Is it a good buy. My requirements are that I should get a good connection throughout my home which is a 4 level back split.

    The second option is either :
    1.D-Link DI-624 for 50CAD at Best Buy
    2.Linksys WRT54G-CA for 55CAD at Best Buy

    Please advise. Thanks

    The DI-624 has more features, just need to see if you need them. I would not buy a linksys unless it's a v4. Linksys changed from Linux to a closed system. And in turn kill the great performance they had.
