I am planning on buying a wifi router. However i am confused between 3 of them. Please help me on choosing the best possible one. Here's the link of all 3.

Cisco Linksys E900 Wireless-N300 Router
Cisco Linksys E900 Wireless-N300 Router - Cisco Linksys: Flipkart.com

Belkin Basic Surf (N300) Router
Belkin Basic Surf (N300) Router - Belkin: Flipkart.com

Netgear JNR3000 N300 Gigabit Router
Netgear JNR3000 N300 Gigabit Router - Netgear: Flipkart.com

And here is the URL in which i've compared all 3 of them.

forget about cisco E900 & belkin.i only recommend tp-link or asus for under 5000 price range.the only advantage netgear JNR3000 has is gigabit lan & may be of use if you transfer dozens of GB of data everyday using LAN(not wifi) but if not then get this:
TP-LINK TD-W8968 300 Mbps Wireless N USB ADSL2+ Modem Router - TP-LINK: Flipkart.com
the reason i am recommending this is because it is all-in-one device.it has adsl modem so can be used for connections of bsnl/mtnl/airtel.it has 3g usb support so can be used to share 3g usb modem connection over wifi.it has EWAN port which makes it possible to use it as a simple wifi router with cable broadband.its usb port also support media sharing,printing sharing & FTP server.

Sorry for the late reply. As suggested by whitestar_999 I ordered TP-Link TD-W8968 via flipkart. They told it would take 9 days to deliver. And on the 9th day I received a call from them saying its not available. Later I buyed from a local shop for Rs.2300 instead of 2700 which was on Flipkart. And I must say its indeed a very good featured Router. Only thing that makes me disappointed is that range is not so good since it has only a 3 dbi antenna as compared to 5dbi which is available in other routers. Thanks once again whitestar_999

usually all tp-link modem/router above 2000 & below 5000 use dual/triple 3dbi antenna.range depends on many factors like construction material/building design etc & it is completely possible that the same router you are using can show a greater range in another house/area of same size.also 5dbi antenna model are single antenna model & the cheapest dual 5dbi antenna model from tp-link costs ~5500-6000.

Actually, Linksys was bought by Cisco, so you can say you are buying Linksys routers that are produced by Cisco now....
