    Hey everyone. Few questions. I just got a new studio xps 16 with the intel 5300 card, I want to upgrade my current wireless to N, what router would best take advantage of the extra antenna's?

    Right now I have a linksys g, its being used only as an access point connected to a a d-link 8 port router (in my patch panel). When copying files from my desktop (connected via cable) to my laptop over wireless, I'm only getting transfer rates of around 1 MB/s, that seems really slow to me. What should I be expecting for internal rates?

    Thanks!
