Any recos for a good wi-fi router? Just some home office type stuff (laptop, ipad, printer) and the occasional netflix movie or NCAA2014 game on ps3.
Thanks in advance

AT&T Uverse has theirs built into the modem. I would love to know if I could supplement it with something, but I doubt I can.
I work from home and would love to have blazing fast interweb speed.

Netgear or Linksys.
I have the NG at home and it works like a charm. Linksys at the office and it's a bitch to set your parameters.
I'd got with NG for your home.

Set it to bridge mode and enable DHCP on your new router...

Try to get one that can operate on two or more different channels and is "N" standard. Of course, all of your hardware needs to also be N standard, but most routers are also backwards compatible.

I bought the predecessor to this one--an ASUS RT-N66U Dual-Band Wireless-N900 Gigabit Router. I put it into repeater mode and hardwired it to my existing AT&T DSL modem / router. It works perfectly. The underlying modem/router actually handles IP assignments, so in my particular application it is just fancy range extender, but I have been impressed with how well it functions in that role. I have an actual (Amped Wireless) range extender farther away that connects to the ASUS wirelessly, and the whole system works extraordinarily well. I also use the ASUS to push a Slingbox feed to various places outside the house, and I have never had a problem with bandwidth--even at 100+ feet and through several walls.
