Just got a 20mbs cable modem from RCN?

Do I need a special router to realize the new download speed or will any router do the job?

Update:

Andrew: Actually I complained that my bill was to high and that I was going to switch to another provider so they lowered my bill by $60, threw in the new modem, and an HDDVR for free. It sucks that you need to threaten to leave to get good service but owell.

    Any router should handle the job but get something reliable. How much does it cost for 20mbs?

    Pretty much any router should do it as far as the network speed; just be sure it's at least a 100Mbps connection on the WAN port of the router and not the more typical 10Mbps.
