which router?

[gychang]

I need to connect 2 PCs at home in different room.

I want to use wireless router, that is fast enough for web surfing and easy to setup. I would appreciate suggestions please.

there is a good deal on the dlink 713p (which is pretty much the same as the smc barricade) at amazon. check hot deals for more details. too lazy to link now.

thanks,

713p at home works like a top with DSL 728/128...fixing to buy one for the office but noted that apprarently dLink now has a 614+ which apparently does the same thing (?) at potentially twice the speed (22 vs 11) and Best Buy is showing it like at $120 less $20 rebate...the newer cards are still at $99 and it looks like they are coming out with a 5ghz version..
