    i just had a question about the linsys WRT55AG router. are there any noticeable speed increases with a dual band wireless router? also i recently preordered the w3j and was wondering if i should upgrade my router to wireless g because currently i have a wireless b only router. I am mainly going to use my internet connection for gaming.

    I always say G is a better way to go.

    Dual band has nothing to do with speed. It just means you can establish A band connections(used mainly only in businesses) not needed or really wanted in home.
