Price. 85 USD on Dell.com (right now) but you may find cheaper (or much more expensive if
your not willing to look). I paid 160 CDN about 2 years ago.
Last thought... if you are looking for a high end router then you may consider the DIR-855
instead its essentially the same thing but dual band (2.4GHz/5GHz) with a LCD display
(Albeit 200$). If I was buying a new router today I would. That said the price on the
DIR-655 has come down recently after being about 160 Cdn for 2 years.

Since I don't want to reduce security to WEP, I still use my trusty Nintendo Wi-Fi USB
connector just for my DS Lite. I have found that, really, nothing works better for my DS Lite
than that great little piece of equipment. And after a few tweaks to the D-Link (which I found
a little difficult, as I am technology-illiterate), it works fantastically; we get super speeds on
everything, and (for now) are even running a VoIP phone off of it, as well as having the
computer wired off of it. It has the security options of WEP, WPA, and WPA2, and can
support up to 32 wireless devices, although it did cost $150 at best buy. D-Link does have
a "better" quality "gaming" N-series router, which was only available online in my area, and
it ran $199. We figured we would try this one first, and it seems to work well. The company
has a forum site with tech support available to answer questions, so I haven't actually had
to call them with any of my little problems, the biggest of which being Vonage's problem,
which is why we are switching back to embarq tomorrow after nearly 2 years on Vonage.
But, oh well. I say, research your router. If you are paying for a really high speed internet,
and using a G-series router, you are losing about half your speed you are paying for. And if
you are running a few appliances off the router, you need to just invest in an N-series router
(I've had bad luck with Belkin, especially if you have DSL through Embarq or Sprint), it pays
off in the long run. Just read the manual, and call customer support if you don't understand.
the manuals do use big words, and I had to look a lot of stuff up online LOL.
