Wow!
I am installing a new Netgear N wireless router later today, as I have been going through my old Vonage Linksys router, Linksys wireless access point, and my new Arris cable modem Comcast installed awhile back for their phone service.
My speeds were around 25 megabit down, but going straight through the modem now it is insane with it adding on another 10 megabits down

I will post up again later once I get the new wireless added in.
Hopefully it will not drop to much on my main PC here which will be hardwired to it.
The wireless is only for my laptop, my Droid Bionic when the Verizon signal drops in here, and my new Amazon Kindle Fire I picked up a few weeks back.
Regardless though, the new wireless setup will not be as much of a bottle neck as running the two older Linksys boxes.
The Netgear one is the one you can get for free through Comcast by ordering it off of their website.

OK, here it is with the PC hooked up first through the wireless router hard wired to it, and then the router to the cable modem.

The wireless router is the Netgear N150, WNR1000v2.

Speed did not go down at all hooked up to the new router like it was when hooked up to the old Linksys boxes.
Very happy

Just got my new Comcast bill today, and they said they have increased our speed double.
They ain't a kiddin'.
I tested it before I powercycled the modem, and it was:
Ping 11
Download 35.62 Mbps
Upload 4.09 Mbps
New test is double, just like they said it would be.
