    What router to buy?

    So, basically, I want internet on my laptop and xbox at the same time. I'm tired of having to move cables and restart my modem.

    I've used a router before, but every time I would play on my xbox, I would get disconnected from multiplayer lobbies. I need one that doesn't do this.

    I get <20MB/s, so slow internet isn't my problem. Money is no object. Could someone please give me a recommendation?

    Wouldn't you need the Xbox router too?
    Unless you use an ethernet cable.
    Most routers allow XBL multiplayer.

    I got a fatass Belkin router. I've also had good way with Netgear. My pc and xbox are right next to each other and I just have a second Gigabit PCI card that i plug into the xbox. then bridge the connections on my computer.. im almost 100% positive theres a better way to explain it though

    I've had a Linksys G router before. That's the one that gave me problems.

    Go to Wal-Mart and buy a Linksys WRT $50 router and you'll never have a problem.

    If you need any help I'll teamview into your pc and do it for you.

    I don't trust Linksys anymore. I want the top of the line router.
