I'm looking to get a travel router because I need to stay conneced whenever I leave town, which isn't often. Therefore, I'd like to get the best travel router to connect to my cable modem router so I can get free from the cable when I need to. Basically, I'm looking for something that wil give me a signal probably no more than50 yards. I've got an Averatec laptop, running Windows XP Home. If anyone has ANY suggestions, I'd appreciate it.

Make it simple, (almost) any USB adapter will work just fine,
D-Link's DWL-G122 is one of many.

The main differences seem to be in how they are powered. The Linksys Wireless G travel router has a built in U.S. plug, while the Netgear and Belkin travel routers device uses an external adapter.
The D-Link and the APC models support power over USB, which can be more convenient when traveling, but they also can be powered from an AC adapter.
If it were me, I'd get the D-Link due to the dual power options, and the fact that the APC is only 802.11b. It's also about the least expensive option, $38 after rebate, including shipping, from Amazon, see "
Look at the WyFlyer
IE it is more than just a travel router, but also has a built in dialup modem that you can use if there is no network where you are at.
PS In case you are curious, it's about $140.
I have and like the Linksys Wireless-G Travel Router - WTR54GS
