ADSL Router Opinions

The internal modems in laptops are analog telephone like modems that use the regular telephone voice channel as communications medium, as opposed ot ADSL models which use a dedicated telephone line pair connected to specialised exchange equipment, and require an ADSL modem on your side. So no, you can't, they are totally different animals.
 
If you get all your devices from one manufacturer you are probably ok, but if you mix or add from other supplier at a later point you may run into problems. Point is, do you really need the increased throughput. g does pretty well for most things, even streaming media, but for copying of huge files and the like it would be useful. Range should be better too, which will be a big plus.
 
i am not really an online gamer but may move into that. also if i move house range may become an issue. i may just get the 7300g by Billion.
 
Maybe JohnnyQ can comment, maybe he has some experiance or feedback on the n stuff he is selling.

You can get a draft N router if you like just try to get the same make as your draft N network card. If you only have G network cards at the moment it won't make a difference.

With the 802.11N standard they have already completed the hardware side of things so when the full revision is released you'll will only need a firmware upgrade on your router to be compliant.
 
so i gotta check the spec of my network card on the laptop! but i thought it was a wireless speed we were referring to. would i have to check the Wifi specs on the laptop?
 
was at Makro yesterday. they got routers and "routers with ADSL modems". i have to get the latter right?
