Netgear wireless ADSL router

[marlins]

I'd like to setup a wireless network @ home using a fixed ADSL line. I've narrowed the wireless modem/router options down to the following Netgear products:

1) Netgear RangeMax Next Wireless N Cable Router with 4 10/100 Mbps switch and Single WAN Stock Code(SKU) : WNR834B-100ISS

2) Netgear 108Mbps Super GTM Wireless ADSL Firewall Router w/4-Port 10/100 Mbps Switch Stock Code(SKU) : DG834GTUK

My main concerns are security & sustainable transfer rates. Which one???

Unless you have cable, you have already chosen.

I use an airport express, works great, not so sure about the premium combo router though.

Netgear is generally good, good luck with you choice.

Wow, well spotted... I missed that...

Just to clarify, marlins, Gatecrasher is pointing out that the RangeMax router you have identified has no built-in ADSL modem, whereas the Super G router does. I use the DG834GT and it is superb - I'd highly recommend it.

Although, if you have equipment with Wireless-N (as opposed to Wireless-G), you may want to go with the RangeMax for improved signal at greater distances and throughput (with file transfers within your network; your ADSL won't be fast enough )

I got a DG834GT and use AirPort around the house too. Signal is always at 100% even when outside with my MacBook in the yard from the router. I'm not sure about the other but DG834GT is really good.

Though the above person said the WNR834B-100ISS has 802.11 N(New wireless technology which most Airport now has) Both your options are NetGear, you'll have no problem with either, that's for sure.
