Question What wireless router is good for me?

I want something that has a 4 port router, where I can connect the ethernet cable to the machine directly. And the router must have one USB printer port. And it must also have some kind of wifi where it can connect the centrino laptop.
There are too many products, and I am not sure which is right for me.
802.11g is compatible with 802.11b right? so getting a g will work?

If D-Link, SMC, or Linksys offered a wireless router with a USB print server built in, I would have suggested it. I don't like Netgear but it's a major brand and widely supported.
