Re: New PC & OS (Vista 64)-New Router also?

I've been running Vista-64 Ultimate for just over a year. My old Linksys WRV54G works just fine with it. As pointed out above, there is no real need for a router upgrade just because you have a new OS.

I am considering upgrading my router some day as it does not support gigabit Ethernet. While my Internet connection is well under gigabit speeds, more of my newer internal devices support gigabit.

Yes, gigabit, and even 11n, at this point in time, tend to serve best from "within" the network, rather than adding any performance to one's internet connection! My NAS is gigabit connected, and disk transfer speeds are definitely better within my network over 11n wireless connection.

I would not say that an 11n router and/or gigabit connections are never useful, but, only in given situations...
