Re: [Wireless] Buy a WRT54GL or a WRTxxxN wireless-N router?

If this is for a friend I would just go for the n router at the lower price you found and be done with it. Even if you can flash ddwrt or something else I would not. Just put on the newest most stable oem firmware. If they ever need basic help it will be more available from others if you are not available in stock firmware form.
Since they are asking for your advice I get the impression they are the set and forget type and not the try the new thing firmware flash type.
The N should have more room also because of gigabit etc. also for future or current needs.

Although a solid 11G router is fine, the future is sneaking up, and higher speed broadband is becoming much more available. With that in mind, I do recommend considering an 11N router for new purchases.

As DaveM mentioned, I really use the gigabit connections and higher speed wifi for my NAS and intra-network file transfers...I've only got a 6Mbps DSL line after all...hardly enough speed to push an 11g router! But sooner or later...
