My house is 4500 sq. ft and double storey.

I work for a wireless tech support.Trust me.Just settle down for a Wireless-G Broadband Router with SpeedBooster
The Wireless-G Networking Solution with SpeedBooster Performance Enhancement.Linksys is the best.Dont try to buy a pre N or N series router.

@sabretooth . even i want to share my dataone connection wirelessly between my laptop and desktop . and i also want both the machines wirelessly LAN ed . is it possible with the above wifi router you have suggested ? . if so what is the price of that ? . and BTW do you ride a kinetic laser GF 170 ?

connect the ADSL modem to ur router and then connect the computers to the router either to the LAN ports or wirelessly.The router is like a DHCP server so it'll provide u with IP addresses for separate computers(well technically).Even I use a dataone connection but never tried it really.But it should work.

Ya I ride a GF Laser why?

i have seen ppl using wifi, but the common problem is disconnection. they get disconnected and then have to connect again manually. what do u suggest regarding this. i may spend around 10k.

Once again I say the Linksys is good.there are different channels to choose from.u may use a higher channel to avoid EMI(electro magnetic interference) or RSI(radio signal interference).More over u may change and personalise ur network name(SSID) and then secure ur network by using either WPA or WEP 64bit or 128bit level encryption.

I'll keep discussing these things on my wireless thread in the near future.
