Wireless Router

Sorry, I will be installing Alltel DSL at my Mother and Sisters house over Mothers Day weekend. Need recommendations on which wireless router to get. Don't really need Pre N or that sort of speed and range, but 54g or 108g would be great. House is on a farm, a large 3 story old mostly wood structure. Two desktops and occasionaly a laptop would share the internet.

i'd recomend the D-link 524 or 624.

I just installed a Linksys WRT54GL wireless router. Excellent router, and the fireware can be replaced with the Linux version for added functionality.

Thanks, I've been using the 524 for over a year now in a residental neighaborhood with good success.

Fullmetal Chocobo, you just reminded me of a critical point....... When I talked to Alltel last week, the lady did mention that they only provided tech support for the Linksys brand of routers. My sis is not technically astute with such things, but do you think that once I set the thing up, other than an accasional reboot of the DSL Modem and Router she would be fine?

On a related note, any Alltel DSL subscribers here? I'm curious about their service. This was the only Broadband option other than Sat where my family lives.
