The DGL-4100 > Broadband Gigabit Gaming Router If you're not interested in having a wireless network then this is the one for you. It was the first in the series and is the best 4-port Gigabyte Wired Router available. This is the router I personally own, and have recommended to numerous people. Since this is the oldest and most basic model, cause it's wired only, it's obviously the least expensive. The current average price is between $110-$130. PS: I will be updating this post with the other two models ASAP.

It uses a 5dBi high-gain antenna for exceptional wireless signal coverage. And it's only a tad more than the DGL-4100 at an average price of $130-$150. The DGL-4300 supports most network standards: IEEE 802.11g IEEE 802.11b IEEE 802.3 IEEE 802.3u And supports these Wireless Signal Rates: D-Link 108G: 108Mbps 54Mbps 48Mbps 36Mbps 24Mbps 18Mbps 12Mbps 11Mbps 9Mbps 6Mbps 5.5Mbps 2Mbps 1Mbps Also with it being wireless, it comes with a few extra security protocols, so people can't jack your connection. Protect your wireless data with support for both Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) and 128-bit Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) Disable SSID Broadcast and MAC Filtering features protect against unauthorized access from your wireless network

It uses 802.11n, as well as .11b and .11g. But if you don't plan to or already have any Wireless-N devices, it's not worth the price.
