Hi,

I own a Netgear MR814, I think its a version 1. I soon as I turn on encryption on wireless, my wired connections to the internet slows dramaticly to something around 50k/s.

I would like get a new wireless router 802.11G with 256bit encryption any recommandation?

Thanks

As far as performance.

Link: 802.11a/b/g SOHO Routers & Access Points: Performance

Your actual distance might be different then what describe in the Graphs. Indoor coverage depends heavily on the envioroment; graphs like this should be used to understand the relation in performance between Wireless hardware.

The D-Link 624 SuperG and the Netgear WGT624 SuperG seem to out perform the rest of the bunch.

In order to achieve such a performance you should get the matching SuperG cards of the same brand.

I've got a Dell TrueMobile 2300 wireless router. Didnt see it on that list, although I'm sure someone else makes it...I doubt dell makes any of their networking stuff, I know they dont make their 5200 series Gig switches. Anyways, this is a pretty good router, I like it. You might wana check it out.
