Home network speed questions
by baseballnut - 11/26/08 5:33 PMRight now, I have a Linksys WRT54G router and two computers: a Lenovo T61 and an HP nc6000. I'm wondering if upgrading my router to, say, the Belkin N+ is going to make a huge speed difference with both or either of the two machines. I've got Optimum Broadband, which is fairly fast.
Thoughts?

Doubtful

Read http://www.optimum.com/online/why/faster.jsp and the top speed is 30 million bits per second. Even old 802.11g can hit 54 million bits per second so you have enough wifi speed for even 2 machines.
