We bought ourselves this Cisco router for Christmas: http://www.amazon.com/E2500-Advanced-Simultaneous-Dual-Band-Wireless-N/dp/B004T9RR4A/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1361575431&sr=1-1&keywords=Cisco+2500 I had never setup a wireless network before. The instructions in the box walked me through it.......... very easy. I stream movies and tv shows from Amazon Prime with it, through my ps3, to my big screen tv. It does exactly what I want it to do. I'm even able to use my smart phone in my apartment now. I couldn't before (basement apartment). The regular cell phone service didn't work, except by the dining room window. I switched the phone service to WiFi, in it's menus, and now I'm able to make and receive calls anywhere in the house. Good luck.
