Does anyone have any recommendations to what is a good quality, money-saving 4port router? All I'm gonna use it for is my Road Runner service to split to my 3 comps in the house.

Thanx

I recently bought a Netgear RT314, and I love it.

If you are in the US, i believe you can get a SMC Barricade (4port router/switch) for around $40-50 after rebates.

I've got a wireless barricade -- lot more expensive than the regular ones, but I love it. I replaced a Linksys 4-port router with it about six months ago and haven't looked back.

Routers Compare.

I looked throughout few BBSs, and collected "informal stats", concerning the Entry level Cable/DSL Routers.

For what ever it worth it seems that CW (Conventional Wisdom) claims:

1. Netgear RT314
2. Barricade 7004BR
3. Linksys BEFSR41

I would choose the one that has the features that fit the way you use the Internet.

Thanx for the advice people, I will look into them. I don't think I'll go wireless just yet. A little too pricey for me right now.
