Does anyone have any experience with this product from Linksys....or a comparible product? Kind of a compare and contrast with the Netgear product.....I'm sure Netgear does wireless as well.
http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?product_code=282388 I have two desktops (XP and RH 7.2) and one laptop. I would like to do wireless as well.
