In addition to answer your question number 4, since Linksys BEFSR81 is not a wireless router the connection speed between your workstation and the router should be 100Mbs. However, the actual &quot;internet download speed&quot; still depends on your WAN connection speed.

I need to set up a wireless network at my home with one wired pc and the other wireless.<br />
<br />
With so many options available in the market, I am confused as to which one should I go for &nbsp;as I need to have a less expensive but effective network at my home<br />
<br />
Questions:<br />
1) Linksys has &nbsp;Wireless-G (802.11g) &nbsp;and Wireless-B(802.11b) options. The G ones are expensive one but offer data rate of 54 Mbps as compared to the B ones with data rate of 11 Mbps.<br />
<br />
2) Does the Network PC Card and the router have to be from the same company??<br />
<br />
3)Is Linksys BEFW11S4 Wireless-B Cable/DSL Router and Linksys WPC11 Wireless-B Notebook Adapter<br />
a good option??<br />
<br />
4) At present I am using Linksys BEFSR81 and really satisfied with the Internet connection speed. But I could not find the data transfer rate for this so I can not compare it with the wireless routers.???<br />
<br />
Any suggestions please..<br />
Thanks<br />

Wireless router options???

The term broadband commonly refers to high-speed Internet access that is always on and faster than the traditional dial-up access. Broadband includes several high-speed transmission technologies such as digital subscriber line (DSL), cable, fiber optics, wireless (for which there is a separate topic), satellite and broadband over powerlines (BPL).
