I wana wi-fi router for my system.I don't know much about how wi-fi works,it's qualities,about range,etc. Please provide some info regarding wi-fi routers.
Also suggest me an average router but of best quality :!:

I wana use it for net surfing only

THANKS ANYWAYS

Sam is right. There is no point of a wi-fi router it you don't have a Laptop/PSP/other device that has wi-fi.

+1 for the linksys though.

Yes i do suggest for Linksys for specifications and model visit its official site. Serach it out with Google Uncle.

I have heared abt D-Link also
Plz explore ur replies
I just wana surf net via router
It may b upto 2K only
Thanks Again...

if in future you're gonna buy a laptop, then only get a wifi router.

i'd suggest Netgear.

Actually I live in hostel n the admin. has just bring Wi-Fi in our campus.So all guys having Lappy surf net whole night...I also wana use net...That's why I'm asking for router only which gives me relative speed!

then what you need is a PCI wi-fi card & not a router

AnyOne

AGP slot is for Graphics cards........

You should have an empty PCI slot.....

Anyways, I'll suggest you to go for a Netgear Wifi PCI card......*www.netgear.com/Products/Adapters/GWirelessAdapters/WG311.aspx
You'll get it for Rs.800~....

Thanks Gagan 4 d link!
But that gudget demands 'PCI 2.2' slot but I only have AGP slot :cry:

So that mean this card is not compatiable with my PC
Wht's d solution than...May b I have 2 change my mobo or wht...

^^ Man, you'll be definitely having an empty PCI slot.....

Anyways, USB to Wifi cards are also available. But I'm damn sure that you've a PCI slot. Just check your Mobo.

Get this: *www.netgear.com/Products/Adapters/GWirelessAdapters/WG111.aspx Its just Rs.100~ expensive than that PCI and actually far better. You can also use it with laptops lacking Wifi.
