Well; I think it depends a lot on your actual top connection speed(s) that you have available to you. There are many options for routers but you need to know that nowadays a majority of routers are both wireless and ethernet. But just because they are wireless(wifi) does not mean you have to use the wireless part of it. I recommend the netgear brand as they are one of the better brands out there these days. it also depends on your price point; how much can you afford to spend as prices vary widely anywhere from under 100 bucks to 300 or more bucks for the best models out there.
