I don't think ANY normal wireless router does well with FPS games. FPS games do not tolerate packet loss well, and a wireless signal is very vulnerable to loss. If you must use the wireless for gaming, try something link this

At least you can use traffic shaping to prioritize your games.

Actually, I wanna have an ethernet cable from the router to my computer. My mom just wants wireless and I guess I couldn't mind wireless for my iPod touch.

i have the linksys n-router. The increased speed is false, and the only reason you would want to get it is if you want more range. If your just planning on Ethernet hookup, get a regular G-router
