I've been using a cheap Tomato router for a few years now and it died on me earlier this week. My project this weekend is to get a new router and redo my network. I'd like to keep the cost of the new equipment under $200 from MicroCenter.
Here is how I have things set up now:
Wireless
iPhone 5
iPad Mini
AppleTV 2
AppleTV 3
Black Xbox 360
Macbook Air (2011)
Windows 7 Gaming PC/File Server (sig)
Friend's Phones, and gadgets
Wired
AT&T Microcell
White Xbox 360
HP Printer
The Windows PC contains all of my back-ups, large files, and media. The AppleTVs stream the media fairly often and the Macbook has it's iTunes library stored on this PC also.
I'm fairly clueless on the networking stuff, but I'd like to keep the PC wireless if possible.
Any advice on what I should pick up and how I should set it up for some killer network performance?
