If not a N router is useless, unless you use it direct connections to another computer or LAN/WAN. Link to comment

Wrathek Posted October 7, 2009 Content Count: 1839 Joined: 09/28/08 Status: Offline Share Posted October 7, 2009 well the thing is, unless you've got monstrous internet, there's no need for a 802.11n router. 802.11g supports up to 54 Mbits/second. To put this into perspective, 2 MegaBytes is = only 16 Megabits. only reason i'd suggest an N router is if you have connection problems, as the frequency of an N router is more likely to penetrate through your walls better.

One of my neighbor cant connect to my G router from the 7th floor and Im on the 4 th floor..and My other buddy plays Wow on a wireless G and it seems to be ok...N router were almost twice the price when I looked..
