Good Deal on Linksys or Netgear Wireless Routers?

[Spyboy]

I am looking for an inexpensive wireless router. I don't want to spend more than $50. Dell recommends Netgear. The Netgear 614 is usually $40.

If anyone knows of a better price on the Netgear 614, or the basic Linksys router, please let me know.

All the Best

Yeah, that's a great offer, thanks! My old one is having problems and I was just checking ones out at Best Buy today. Guess I don't need to go back. Picked up some super cheap USB and crossover cables, as well.

does the router mentinoned by X have ethernet ports on the back as well?

Another option (if you don't want to deal with rebates) is the Netgear WGR614 from frys.com for $29 and free shipping:

I ordered one about 3 weeks ago and it was $25, but the current item appears to be a slightly newer design.

does the router mentinoned by X have ethernet ports on the back as well?The specs say yes.

Port Connectors: LAN 4 x 10/100Mbps Auto-MDIX Port

Kind of off-topic, but it's close enough that I'll ask. Does anyone know what the cheapest wireless router that has gigabit ethernet ports is?

TigerDirect has a "recertified" 614 for $17.

I went with the no rebates option from Fry's. Thanks for the help though, X.

In my experience, they become available for shipping every couple of days, or even sooner.

I got mine shipped, wonder if they'll do a price adjustment over the phone?

It's a pretty good router. Good range, removable antenna, plenty of features.
