I need to get myself a wireless router going. I want to use my PDA at home and unfortunately, the USB Wifi Connector I use to create a Wifi signal for my Nintendo Wii just isn't working for the PDA. I guess wireless is the way to go. What should I look for in a wireless router.

Excellent, reliable router that can load custom firmware if you need ( I haven't). -
Either one of these will do you just fine IMO:
Netgear WGT624
or
Linksys WRT54G
I personally use the Netgear no problems but I have friends who use the Linksys and they like it. -
Check this post:

In summary:
Linksys WRT54GL (Avoid WRT54G/GS v5-v7 as they have half the memory of the GL)
Buffalo WHR-G54S
Buffalo WHR-HP-G54
Motorola WR850G v2-v3 (the could be find refurbished or in ebay very cheap, avoid v1)
All of these routers are Broadcom based routers and they are very capable out of the box, but they become outstanding with third party firmware. -
Thanks...now I've just gotta see if I can get any of them here in Japan.

I just noticed that you will be using your Wii. Check this post (long) for some problems that people have reportes with routers using DD-WRT.
