Best N Band wireless router with usb Dongle (Budget)

Quick question, If a router has 300mbps speed for wireless, and 100mbps for wired, does the wired connection becomes a bottleneck for communication between a wired and wireless client. Theoretically, it looks like it, but practically whats the situation. Most of the wired and wireless connections almost never ever operate on the advertised limits.

Theory is correct. However consider the practical situations
1. The wired connections to a router in 99% case goes to Modem which has a 2/3 mbps max subscription with internet provider and hence the 100mbps rate of wired conection is not a problem
2. In cases the wired connections go to PC or NAS (Network Drives) then there will be a chance of bottle neck provided the wireless clients of the router have connected at speeds higher than 100mbps depending upon their distance with the router and the signal strength. Hence it is advisable to have routers with Gigabit port (1GBps) but then again this will not be a problem for 99% cases unless there is a file tranfer situation every now and then. Video streaming never reaches that level unless there are multiple video streaming situation at the same time.
 
Look into WRT 320N from Linksys. I'll be putting a dongle (Dual band) up for sale in sometime, see if that interests you.
Teky, think you meant WRT610N mate cause that's the dual band router that you and I have.
 
Some more links guys .. I am confused searching ebay.... What do you think about ASUS routers ? are they any good?

Please visit one of your local IT shops. For computer related parts ebay prices are almost same inclusive of taxes with what I get in my local market in Kolkata. So you should do the same comparison as well. Local shops may even keep D-Link. Belkin, Cisco, etc. After you see the models available you may compare the features and make your decision. This will give you more flexibility w.r.t warranty. Regarding the adaptor, we do not get adapteors in similar abundance as routers and for that you may have to rely on online shopping if you fail to find a suitable one in the shops.

Not the router mate, Only the dongle is going to up for sale since I never used it. Router is absolutely top class no drop outs for almost an year.
