Buying a router

Engeljunge · 02-09-2005, 10:25 AM

I just bought a new laptop with wireless capabilities. I just wanted to make sure the router I buy is compatable with the network card. Here is the router I'm thinking of getting: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...1910&CatId=373, and this is the specs on the wireless card that comes with the laptop: 54g(TM) 802.11b/g WLAN w/ 125HSM/SpeedBooster(TM)

Ye, that router will work just fine, However if you want to take advantage of the SpeedBooster technology, you should look into getting a Linksys router.
