Whatever gives you the option to hook your own antennas.

I'd buy anything made by LinkSys before I consider owning a Netgear product.

I have never owned any of Netgear's wireless equipment, but I had a small 4-port switch and then a 4-port hub quit on me in a timespan of 4 months each. Normally, I'd attribute equipment failure to bad luck, but not when it happens twice in a row.

I am not sure about linksys router. Hear much better thing about them. For NetGear, I love the 10/100 router but hated their wireless. It sucks in range, setup and other stuff as well.
I am currently using a DLink wireless router, I think it is one of the best for the buck. You have a lot of feature just like an expensive router (Cisco ... ) for much less. It is a little slower and shorter in range than Cisco, but it is only $69.00
