Hi, I am looking for a good 802.11g wireless router which will serve the purpose as a cable modem and a wireless access point (router). Does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks NK Ab | ||||||||||||||||

That should cover your needs for like $80 and you can replace one or the other without having the cost of replacing both. $50 for the modem and $30 for the router at several elctronics outlets (may require rebate). If you're interested in VOIP, then models will vary. | ||||||||||||||||
