View Single Post - Suggestions on a Vista Certified/Compatible router

Apparently it does matter, I get far superior download speeds (1-50KB/s with the router, 700KB/s+ without it) and far better ping times (350ms+ with the router, 40 or less without it). I own two of the same router, and both behave exactly the same when installed on my network.

Aside from that, it's been brought to my attention many times (by others, and by researching) that Vista has compatibility issues with quite a few routers in regards to how it sends and recieves the data you speak of.

I'm still on the hunt for a new router, and currently newegg is my second choice.. but I will be searching there once I get a few good suggestions.

What I'm looking for are suggestions on routers that someone has successfully used with Vista without connectivity issues.
