I need some deals on a pretty good router, its got to have long range though because I just bought the wireless adapter for the 360 and my current router is too far away and I dont think it has long range. Any in store deals would be better than online ones please. I need pretty long range though.

I need a range that extends over more than 45-50 feet. I have D-link Di 524 version E right now and it sucks. For some reason I can find it when I am looking for a network on my 360 but when I do the test it can't connect. Any help on fixing that would be awesome as well but if not just give me some good deals on routers.
 
My DI-524 version C works good enough for me, but from what I can tell you're looking for a wireless range extender, not a brand new router.
 
Im looking for a new router, I called D-link yesterday and the technician told me that D-link Di-524 version E doesn't work with xbox live.
 
You want a MIMO router for sure if you need to go distance. I use the Belkin F5D8230-4 but there are several MIMO routers out there (including one by Linksys) available. Once I got the settings right after some conflicts with LIVE, it works great. My 360 (using official MS USB wireless adaptor) and pc are actually on the other end of the house from where the router is located. If you do actually buy that Belkin one, I'd be glad to guide you through setting it up for LIVE for the best possible connection. Either way, go MIMO.
