Recommended Router for Trading

[brownsfan019]

I may be changing out a few things here on the computers and thought now is a as good a time as any to look at a new router.

Since we have some handy tech members on the forum, looking for ideas on a strong, stable router that can easily handle trading app's. I currently have a netgear that works fine but I read this post on ET that talked about older routers being capped out. Not sure if that is 100% accurate or not, but if it is, I should consider a new one. In that thread, someone mentioned this site that reviews routers so I was glancing at that as well for some ideas.

I'm looking for the best router out there that can handle speed and push the data through ASAP.

Please list your recommendations here!

Thanks!

BF: Try Xincom's stuff. They combine DSL and cable connections in one box that provides combined speeds, fail-over and redundancy. Can't beat that.

Does it matter that I only have a cable connection? Would I be paying for something that would not be used?

My backup is a Verizon wireless card. I know, not the greatest but for my current home location, it's what is available.

To receive the full benefit of a Xincom router you must have two (2) highspeed connections. The peace of mind you get is exceptional and the speed is friggin' ridiculous.

I can imagine. I've read about these before.

When we move again, I am going to be doing a little more research on the internet options available in locations before deciding. I didn't think that far in advance when we bought this place.

One follow up (not sure if this matters or not) - all trading rigs are hard wired into the router, but I do need a reliable wireless connection as well. Wireless being used on non-trading computers after hours.

I believe Xincom can accommodate this but I am not sure, you'll have to double check with them.
