D-Link DGL-4300 wireless router?

Question

it says this router has a speed of 108MBPS is that ture and is that alot faster than 54mbps so is that better and would it be worth getting this router D-Link DGL-4300 wireless router

Answer 1

Yes this is the advertised speed of both units.  I don't like D-link, prefer the Linksys models.  You need to make sure you have both the Router and the Adapter the same (Type N Linksys)

Also keep in mind that the speed of your Internet connection at any given time has a direct impact on whatever speed you actually get.  And others on your wireless will also impact your speed.

Answer 2

That is the theoretical speed, because wireless connections have some overhead in headers and bit checks etc.  But yes 802.11N routers are faster than 802.11G (54M).  I prefer Linksys routers though since I had a problem with a DLink 524.  Here is a nice 802.11N router: WRT160N

Note that since 802.11n is not a standard yet, you will need to be sure to use Linksys for the PC card also. The card is WPC300N.

Also keep in mind this is like a file transfer speed, you will not see any difference in the 2 speeds for internet surfing.
