I do want to upgrade and as long as it is reasonable I just may do it! Please give me where you find it such as Newegg or Tiger direct and the link to it so I san make me small lil brain up quickly!

There are selection buttons for the models under the main description.) Love it. There are a couple of models above it, but this is a great router at a solid price point. 2.4 and 5GHz wireless bands simultaneously. My smartphone loves the 5GHz band, and my older laptop and other stuff that's not 802.11n (5GHz) compatible works just great on the 2.4GHz band.
