Looking for a new home router

[Krilikz]

OK now im a complete noob when it comes to this router stuff......


So yea the main router that my fam has in the basement is a little old (5 years?) And i belive it is slowing down our internet connections. This router is what all the wires connect to that go to all of our rooms i assume. We have about 5 computers running all the time, 1-2 on a wireless router. Just curious as if any one has a suggestions on what i should buy.

(as side question since im here, Im going with a new Vista build and i dont nessisarly want to use norton as my firewall due to the clutter of shit on it. Iv heard a program called AVG was good but not to sure about all that either.)

Thanks for the help!

I doubt the router is slowing down your wired internet connections. Maybe it is only a hub? ...

Although most people on here might not recommend this program I feel Windows OneCare might be your best bet.
