I just dropped DirecTV for Comcast. We like Tivo and although DirecTV finally released a new HD Tivo it didn't have all the features of the regular Tivos. It is all expensive... and it only took 3 M-cards from Comcast to get one that worked... Cable internet speed is incredible. Any wireless router will work these days, its just how easy is it to set up and is it reliable. A known good router is nice if you have to troubleshoot, there are support, forums, etc. I upgraded to an Asus router this summer, it was expensive considering the router it replaced was $9 after rebate. Had to get a good one since the wireless is used for my business and when the wife works from home.
