Wireless Routers

There is little reason to have a traditional Ethernet network in your home these days.  With routers having extended wireless range and speed, Ethernet cables are too unsightly to deal with.

Once upon a time--like a year ago--wireless was slower and more susceptible to casual snoops.  These days, with WPA, your data is encrypted and secure, and you can now use a wireless router to give Internet access to all of your devices without having to worry about knocking holes in walls or putting cables under rugs.

New construction....yes, run the Ethernet wires.  It's still the over best option, but when buying a router, be sure to factor in wireless access and get something that will support both Ethernet and wireless specifications.
