I'd recommend reading some reviews before spending the money. I haven't used
them, so I don't know how good they really are. The HP one caught my
attention because I saw it at a really good price online at one time. I
can't recall where it was though, but it might be worth comparing prices.

"g" is basically just faster than "b". And a "b" device can talk to a "g"
network. There is a new WPA key format now that is also supposed to be more
secure, but I haven't read much about it. I do know though that the security
drops to the lowest common level when disparate devices talk to each other.

correct?).  The specs for the receiver say 802.11b; are most backwards
compatible?  What am I looking at spending for a wireless router?  I only
have 2 devices currently that I would want on the wireless, one pc and the
streamer.
