Ok, so which wireless router has the best RANGE?

Whew! Great discussion!

So then, it's settled: NetGear does better with big frames, which occur most frequently on downloads (TRANSLATION: downloading my mp3s will be faster with a Netgear router than with one made by LinkSys).

Now, is there any data about the effective range for comparable wireless routers? Specifically, which wireless router is best at sending and receiving 802.11b traffic through walls, etc (TRANSLATION: will I have a better chance with Linksys or with Netgear to kick back in the hammock?) ?

Thanks!

Here is a link of what we have found in one of our latest reviews (No, I am not here to promote PC Mag, though I would like to, but this is just info that I have at my fingertips since I was in charge of the technical aspects and testing in that story).
