Make sure you read up on it vs. the linksys WRT610's!
Oh, and screw apple anything for various reason even if they poop gold eggs!

Naw...I'll stick with the Netgear that you mentioned. I was just trying
to explain to Duncan about the port and mentioned why the USB port could
be nice....but I use Windows 7 homegroups, so I can easly move files
between PCs. And my printer is wireless too, so I can print to it from
the various computers. The Airport seems more for mac users to me...my
3700 should be hear early this week...

Get an Apple Extreme Router then. It should fit the bill.
They are good routers too.

Yeah, but some of the other routers seem to offer much higher
performance in this area. Backups aren't the only thing...moving files
and share files are other good reasons to have a cheap USB drive on the
router.

Aside from small files yes, the usb is dog slow for backups or
anything of
that sort.
It's more of a handy thing other than anything.
If you're serious about backups, a NAS would be more "proper".

Duncan,
At lot of the dual-band wirless N routers have a usb port of them for
connecting an HD that is then available to machines connected for
backups
etc. over the network. One disadvantage of the WNDR3700 is that it is
really
slow for file transfers even on a 1Gbit network (which you'd have if
you
have it). So, that's the one of two negatives about this router.
Still, I'm
going to get it as they all have pros and cons.

Anthony,
What do you mean by, "Too bad the storage is so slow, though." ??
If your current router is only capable of 10/100, then your current
LAN is
only capable of 10/100. Even with G-Bit cards installed in devices.
I think, anyway.

Yes, as Bryan says and I have confirmed. I guess I didn't realize
how
long it has been since I paid any attention to my network. Even
with the
powerline adapters, which claim a max throughput of 200 Mbps, I'd
have
to get a newer& better router to get that (or the best real world
numbers I can get).
So, I guess I'll go with the Netgear WNDR3700 if no one else chimes
in
with a reason not too. It seems to be rated as highly as any other
and
has some cool features. Too bad the storage is so slow, though.

I'm using a linksys wrt54g with a wsb24 booster.
My mothers claim to do 1000 Mbps yet on file transfers I only get
like 11 MB/s which is more like 100Mpbs/8 = 12.5 MB/s. If my
wired
network is running at 1000 Mbps shouldn't I bet getting around
125
MB/s file transfers over the wired network?
What gives?
Your speeds will only be as fast as the slowest link in the chain.
If I
recall the wrt54g is only 10/100 Mbs on the Ethernet ports.
