one heck of a Christmas

well, Christmas is over, and I'm pretty sure Hell froze over...why is that?...because my severly anti videogame parents bought us 2 pairs of Tritton AX360 Hedsets with the xbox 360 adapters....these are my "video games will destroy your lives" parents...I'm not sure if this means they accept our gaming...or if hey have given up on us completly...  JRX's parents gave us a Wii Fit, and it was just an allaround fun... so with our extra time this weekend, so far we caught up on every TV show we have been neglecting, beat Gears 2 on insane and watched a ton of netflix.....


 


now on to business....after a bit of research and some reccomendations from my brother-in-law, we realized we need a new router....so...I pose the question to the all knowing 2o2p readers...which router should we get to opperate 2 laptops, 2 360s a Wii, and possibly our very sweet 80yr old jewish neighbor's compuer who occasionally borrows our conection to look up crossword puzzle help?.....and once we get a new router, is there any point to hooking up our old router in series with the new one to boost connection range, or was that just some load of crap I read somewhere?

well, I'm thinking about the D-Link DGL-4500 Xtreme N Gaming Router...but I haven't really set my heart on anything yet.

My wife and I use a Belkin N1 for our 2 desktops, 2 laptops, and my 360. They have a lifetime warranty in case of any problems, and the damn thing is rock solid. \r \r http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=273526

can't go wrong with that dlink, but if you go linksys, don't go wrt54g; it has stability issues, go with the wrt54gl. much more stable and secure.

well, our router died this morning...we ended up with a Belkin N1 Vision(the only Belkin they had left at our local Best Buy) and after teck support helped us bypass all the Comcast issues we are up and running again...and at about 10X the speed we were running before. thank you all for your reccomendations.
