Attitude matters
If you already have a BSNL modem what all you will require is a wireless router only.But you will be adding one more box on your desk and a brick (power adaptor). If you have a rented modem, I would suggest that you return the BSNL modem and go in for an ADSL modem/router/access point. That will reduce clutter and make setup easy rather than trying to handle two seperate boxes from two different manufacturers.Either Netgear or Linksys will do whether it is only the router or modem+router.Netgear DG834G is available for around Rs. 3000/-. Linksys WAG200G is available for around Rs.4000.

"The Cake is a Lie!!"
Linksys WAG200G has good range, But I don't think it can give you range for 2 floors!

I keep my WAG200G in my Room and I can access it anywhere in floor I am with Excellent-Very Good Signal Strength, But if I take my Laptop to my Terrace (farthest corner of it from my room), I get Low-Very Low signal strength!

One more thing is it's antenna is non-replaceable! (i.e. Totally Attached to the Router, Only Company can replace it, Not Unscrewable)

Therefore, Buy a seperate ADSL Modem and a Linksys WRT54G, WRT54G has 2 antennas and has really good signal strength! :)
