"I'm Jason, Mac genius, and we're going to go over how to buy a broadband wireless router today. What you want to look for in a broadband wireless router; your first question is going to be where do I get one, and you can pretty much go to Circuit City, Best Buy, Wal-Mart even has em'. Pretty much any store will have em' and you're going to look for a number of ports. If you've got two computers you want to hook up, plus an Ethernet printer, you're going to want to get at least three ports there. Most broadband wireless routers are going to have built in wireless and Ethernet ports in the back, and so you're going to be pretty much okay with a general one. I would take about anywhere from sixty to eighty bucks with ya' and you'll be safe at the store. The more antennas that they have on em' the better, because there's going to provide more power that way, and the more power the better the signal, the quicker your download. That said, that's pretty much you want to look, what you want to look for when you buy your wireless broadband router. I'm Jason. Thanks for watchin'."
