    Hey guys,

    Long and short.. i picked up a linksys wrt610n less then a month ago and am now returning it as i can't get the 5ghz band to work properly on it and also having an issue with the usb port(yes i have upgraded to the latest firmware for both the v1 and the v2, my hardware vers is v1).

    But anyway.. i'm looking for either a strong/reliable wireless N or have a dual band again.

    What are your recommendations?

    Thanks in advance!!

    items that'll be connecting to it wirelessly
    2 laptops, m17x toshiba a300
    1 ps3

    wired
    4 pc's that are gig capable
