[maximus02143]

looking to get a router to share internet access and files and maybe learn a thing or two. What ones have you had success with I saw a Linksys Model: BEFSR41for 49.00$ at best buy any one have horror stories about Linksys or should it be Netgear,Dlink I play a lot of games online so low disconnections would be nice. Thanks in advance for suggestions and help

This may be the wrong placs for this but I am also Looking to get a new sound card but not sure what one.. All it will be used for is games, mp3's, videos ect... so it will be oem no need for it to come with games or special software I am not looking to become a dj just want to upgrade from my on board c-media how are the SB live 5.1.

I'm using that Linksys BEFSR41, probably the most used router, and for good reason. Really easy to use. As far as the sound card goes, I'm using SB Live! 5.1 on both computers, good card for the price. If you're going to be doing all that you should probably look into Audigy.

After I posted I saw a thread called Linksys at the bottom of the page and it sound good for the money. So you think SB Audigy would be beter for mp3's and games. do you know what the difference are among the two that would benefit my needs. thanks for the help

Yup! The linksys befsr41 is a nice little unit. Easy to setup and use. I'm running through one as I post. For sound card I like turtle beach santa cruz. Voyetra has been along time in the digital sound business.

Aye I use the linksys router also... easy to forward ports ect... even linksys offfers free tech support wich is nice if you wanna fush about something... The sblive 5.1 is a nice card ... I use one. (no problems with either product) With each beeing around 40-50$ they both are a good buy for under 100$ for both
