Hey guys, can I get some opinions on some routers I'm looking at?

@ladestitute No Idea About Routers.
-
@ladestitute I'll tell you which model looks coolest, but I don't know much about networking.
-
@pony @insistentgeminihonk Eh, it's worth a short: http://www.amazon.com/Medialink-Wireless-802-11n-Internal-Antenna/dp/B0044YU60M/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1328144877&sr=1-1 or http://www.amazon.com/Belkin-Wireless-Dual-Band-Router-Generation/dp/B004N625AA/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1328348787&sr=1-1

@ladestitute o.o it's a close call going solely on aesthetics.. but I think I'd go with the Belkin. It has better features and can stand upright. It's worth the extra $20.
-
@ladestitute unless you're strapped for cash /and/ you don't need or especially want all the features of the Belkin.. then the Medialink would be just fine.
-
@pony I heard some bad reviews about this belkin router though, mainly of the connection dropping/router dying and refusing to even turn on types
-
@ladestitute good point. The reviews for the Medialink are much stronger.. That, combined with the price difference, makes me think the Medialink is your best choice unless you really want the extra features.
-
@ladestitute it's a close call. I understand your indecision.
-
@pony Ps, how much do you know about interference between 2.4 ghz and 5 ghz devices? Do you think it would be a problem?
-
@ladestitute That's something I'm not familiar with. I'd need to look it up. Personally I prefer wired connections only, but I'm weird (and somewhat limited) that way..
