Wireless I is the newest technology. It's the safest and fastest. N is probably the most realistically new technology, if you have an n-router and a n-wireless card you can have internet for up to half a mile. File transfers are faster too on the n. However, you need the card to go along with the router.
As far as routers, NETGEAR all the way. The Netgear rangemax has 7 internal antennas that find your wireless device and make a straight connection to it. Linksys doesn't even compare, my linksys used to make my internet slower and would overheat all the time. Netgear > Linksys.
Another thing you can do is make sure you have the router on the same floor of the house as you are using your wireless device. All that insulation in walls and floors really interferes with the signal.
P.S. Symantec is what I recommend for viruses. Ad-Aware for spyware, SB S&D is alrite... i'm not a huge fan of it though.
