    My five year old router isnt working well, so it's time to replace it.

    We live in an apartment, so no need to cover 12k sq ft.

    A) My Linksys worked just fine for years - any reason to go with someone else?

    B) Is it worth buying up to a wireless-N? My girlfriend, who lives there too, has a Macbook Pro, so I'm assuming it has N capability, and my new Dell does as well.

    Thanks!

    No.

    Yes.

    Be aware though that in most cases if anyone connects at b or g you'll all be "downgraded" to that speed - Shouldn't be a problem in your case, just a heads up
