Faster wireless bandwidth from router with ATA?

    Hi All,
    I currently have the linksys WRT54GP2 router. It has 2 phone ports which is fine. However, the maximum bandwidth I'm getting via wifi is about 13Mb. My broadband speed is 20Mb so I want to be able to avail of this via wifi. (I get the full 20Mb when connected via cable).
    I was thinking about how best to maintain my existing set up while getting the full bandwidth speeds via wifi.
    Looking for the cheapest option possible!
    My laptop has a wireless n receiver. Are there any wireless n routers that have built-in ATAs?

    Any suggestions or help would be great.

    Cheers,

    DC

    I have a Draytek Vigor 2110Vn that is Wiireless N capable and I get about 30Mbps out of 50Mbps with the router in the attic but the closer I get the better the speed.

    Although its not cheap at GBP £ 135

    I'm sure Belkin, Linksys or even Netopia do some WiFi receiver. If your fine with Latency and speeds (which 13mb is fine) there shouldn't be any problems.
