What Wirelss Modem/Router??

I've recently been given an Apple ibook G3 12" as it was going to be thrown out. It has an airport card in it so what I would like to do is get a wireless router/modem so I can connect the PC upstairs for my wife to go online with and then I can use the ibook. I'm getting pretty confused with all the kit out there at the moment so would be grateful for any advice. Have a budget of about

Have a look at the ZyXEL P-660HW-T1. You even get a free USB network adaptor thrown in.

Doesnt look to bad. Any ideas what the signal strength of the router are please? Max it should have to handle is the upstairs PC which is through two plasterboard walls and a standard joist floor.

The apple airport card is based on the Atheros chip set, hence idealy you should look into getting an Atheros based wireless router too, e.g. airport extreme or a netgear wireless router

Thanks xspace. Been shortlisting a few routers and your advice now puts the NetGear DG834G v3 at the top.

Thanks again!
