Need a new router my Linksys WRT300N V 1.1 has broken(Well over 3years old got it when it first came out). It makes a strange frequency noise and just a couple of the lights flicker(not normal) Oh and it has a smell.:eek::cry:.

I currently have my internet plugged straight into my backup computer.

I would like a wireless router that can handle a PS3(long ways from the router and in the basement this house is over 6000+ Sq ft ), Laptop wireless(this one is G only) and have a Xbox 360, 3 computers plugged into it(not all will be on at same time) Usually just 2 computers and a PS3 are on it all the time. I would like to stay below or around $100.

Maybe getting a new laptop so it will support wireless N (for the garage apartment)

Thank You for any and all suggestions! My internet speed is... I pay for 512K Up/256K Down

Also Security is not a problem the closest home is well over 3/4 mile away
