Wireless Network

[Telters]

I will be creating a Wi-Fi Network in our home and was just wondering which router would be best for both Mac and PC's + Wii, Playstation 3 ETC...

It would be great if I could have the product name aka. Airport, Linksys ETC...

Thanks,,

This is a matter of personal choice as most routers can be configured to work with these different devices. My recommendation would be either the Airport Extreme or the Time Capsule, both from Apple. I have the APX and it works great!

Great... This would still work with a PC, though... RIGHT???

Thanks,

Yes. The disk that comes with the APX/Time Capsule has the software on it to make it work with either XP or Vista.

Would I also be able to set it up with my PS3 or Wii???

Their Wi-FI??

Yes, you can. I don't have either but a friend has both and has them connected (wirelessly) to his TC.
