    Default Help me find a wireless router

    So I'm in need of a wifi router, and I thought I'd ask the more tech inclined maast users what you would reccomend for me.

    My needs:

    I upload to youtube a lot so good upload speed would be nice. I also stream netflix daily so good streaming speed would be nice.
    I would like to be able to reach my kitchen through one wall which is about 30 feet from where this will be placed.
    Ability to connect to a wifi bridge in future
    Pc and mac compatable
    easy setup.

    Things I don't need:
    Fancy cloud storage
    wireless printing


    So basically I need the best router under 100 bucks but more like under 50. I'm looking for something with similar output to the mac airport express, but anything that works and is easy to install would be great.

    I've been happy with

    I love the netgenie app, being able to view my network from my phone is a plus. I can reboot or update all from my phone, pretty sweet...


    i have a Xbox in my bedroom about 4 rooms away and get perfect signal wirelessly for Netflix.

    the medialink leaves alot to be desired in the web interface, it does get the job done. im currently running the one in your link, thinking of getting a new one.

    ya to set it up. it doesn't have many features which may not matter to you, but sometimes it doesn't load up correctly.
