I would definitely have to say the Linksys routers are the best. Although they do get hot alot, I have never had to get a new one, or to get it fixed in any way.

I dont have much knowledge about this but i think D-Link and Netgear are good. I've used a D-Link router for over 5 yrs without any problems, though it was a wired one.

Yeah Linksys routers are the best, especially the LINKSYS WRT54G routers, and I have to say that I haven't had any major problems with it since I first installed this router about two year ago. I been tempted to buy a new router especially the ones that have BG and N with it, although after reading many reviews on the N routers I am glad I am saving my money as people been having problems with them and what not. I recommend checking out newegg and check out the reviews people give on some of the big name wireless routers.

+1 for the Linksys WRT54g routers. Also consider flashing the firmware to DDWRT, which will greatly improve the functionality. I have never had a problem with it. I did have a D-Link crap out on me, and have had the impression that at least the basic ones are kinda cheap.

I suggest that you get one that uses wireless-N technology. They are the fastest and the signal isn't confused when going down a hallway or reaching to a basement. These also have great range. I use one right now and my modem and router are all the way down the hall- about 100+ feet. The only downside is the fact that they are more expensive than wireless-g technology routers. But for the money, I think that N technology beats B and G by a longshot. But if you have a small house and don't need very much range, then a wireless-g router would do the job. But I think that a router with wireless-n technology is the best router out there.

The best router that i have came across and i'm using it rhight now is Netgear. I had linksys and belkin routers, they didn't do what i wanted them too. they slowed my connection and made me disconnect alot. I got fed up with them so i found a Netgear router and i love it no slowing down no disconnects and it takes in more bandwith than those routers. I couldn't be any more happeir with any other router.

Netgear and Linksys. Of course the wireless lan standard greatly affects the speed. B and G are common among most routers. N is the new latest and greatest standard. The best so far I have used is a Wireless N router from Linksys of Cisco Systems, very good reception and the ease of use and configuration options are awesome. Cheers.
