I've never tried the netgear systems, but I have a linksys system that I'm very happy with at home. However, the same system at work is much more tempormantal, and I think it's because of the firewall (the real life architectural sort) that it sits next to. It's sapposed to have a clear signal for several thousand feet, but if anything interferes with that, like a wall on one side, the whole signal gets weaker.
Speaking of firewalls.... Once you set up the system, anyone with a wireless network card can use it when they're in range, and with some time and effort they can get onto your computer. I haven't bothered to secure my system because I've yet to discover anyone trying to use the connection. But, if you're concerned about your privacy, it's not hard to secure it, and I believe linksys has tech support that can help you with that.
Finally, do make sure that you can return the system if it goes haywire.
