I have the exact same setup at home - I now have 1 SB1 and 2 SB3s, all working in harmony. I do have 802.11g WiFi, though.

I've got three Squeezebox 1s at home and so i'm also still using a Wireless B router. Would like to upgrade with 2 new SB3 and then use a single SB1. Anyone mixing and matching at home? Has that created any issues for anyone? Would there be significant disavantages if I didnt also upgrade to Wireless G router? Thanks.
