hello..i'm planning on purchasing linksys's router..which one of the above should i get? wrt54gl is a little more expensive than wrt54g..if i were to get wrt54g, which version should i get and how will i know which version it is? thanks.

if you buy a new wrt54g, it'll be V.5 for sure.

the GL version has more powerful hardware I think... It's supposed to be targeted at people who want to flash their router's firmware, install linux, muddle around and derive great swaths of functionality not available by default. Or maybe it came with Linux preinstalled... I forget. Something like that.
I've got the normal kind. Works fine. -

Linksys cut the ram in 1/2 on their routers. If you are planning on gaming or BT get the GL model or a different brand all together. There std line has problems handling multiple threads. This apply if you will have more than 1 user,too.

I would say get this one instead: ( if you live in an appartment), read reviews here:

Best router for it's price range, period.
If you live in a big house and need more wireless range across the house then go for the bigger brother: ( sign up for google account & pay with google checkout, get $10 off, so price is $50 shipped

It has a built in amplifier that extends range.
linksys wrt54g or wrt54gl
