Hey Guys

Just got telstra clear and it rocks.
However, Was told I could use my old telecom wireless modem/router for getting wireless in the house.
How wrong was I
So I need to buy a router and was wondering what is the:
Best
Cheapest
Easist to setup
Router on the market?

I want to hook my xbox 360, wii and laptop wirelessly to it

We have a small place so range is not a problem

Love to hear your thoughts

Can't go wrong with a Linksys. Either of these should work perfectly for your needs. I have the first one, after using the earlier model of the second.

There is a cheep belkin wireless N at harvey norman which would do the trick, If you don't have any wireless N devices then you may be able to get a cheeper wireless g but this is pretty cheep.

Bartender's sticky gives you all the info you might need. I would heartily recommend the WRT54GL + DDWRT - absolutely rock solid.
