and also will i be able to watch videos online like youtube
and which adapter would work good
1. The router should not affect your network connection that much.
2. If you are going to use P2P (ex. torrent) and play at the same time then it might be an issue (but probably not related to your router).
3. I would buy Linksys if I were you and I had money for it.
4. For online games the interesting network parameters are:
a) Network bandwidth: download
b) Network bandwidth: upload (often 4x less than download)
c) Ping (also called latency or lag)
Imagine that internet is a highway: 4 ways to you, 1 way to you.
4a tells how fast you can download. This is “how many cars can travel from you”.
4b tells how fast you could upload. This is “how many cars can travel from you”.
4c tells how long a car can travel from you to a particular place, and back. You should get it bellow 250ms (preferred number is bellow 10ms)
Now imagine that you have a traffic jam – this is what happens when you are using P2P.
