So, i need a router to connect 3 PCs, and a cable modem. I would like it to have 2 USB ports (for external hard drive), also, to support torrent, and to have wireless.

I've been searching and found Asus WL-500gp, only to find out it doesn't support NTFS.

So, can you, please, recommend me one, for up to $100?

That Asus suits me just fine, i can live with fat32 external hdd, but i'm wondering if there are better solutions for similiar price Confused

..sorry for bad english Rolling Eyes

Well, the main reason i need a router is to connect all three pcs to internet. That linksys is well above my budget, but thanks anyway.

here it costs 80e that's 105$
your budget is 100$

i guess making your own server with some cheap dual core would be cheaper and faster as well

Here it costs around 200e, believe it or not Very Happy
Router would be a better solution cause 1. it's quiet, 2. it's small..
I guess i can live without ntfs on that hard drive, after all.

Yeah, i trust you..
Well, here it says 221.80€, but that site isn't realy that reliable. But, again, here it says 22.000din, which is now 206€. So, yeah, f*** up country Very Happy

So, you get the idea. I'm looking for a low budget product Very Happy

Just order from an website such as 4launch they ship to within the EU and I believe Serbia falls within shipping range, will cost you some in shipping but still it will be a ton cheaper.

Nope, 4launch isn't shipping to Serbia..
We realy have some weird customs, so for a 100$ product, i'll probably have to pay some 20-30$ more, and add some more for shipping..
..it's ridiculous Very Happy
I did some more searching, so:
Can anyone tell me why does Asus WL-520GU costs 25e less then WL-500GP?
The only difference i see is that 500 has 2, and 520 has one usb port.
