    Ive got a Belkin N1 router and 3 N1 usb wireless adaptors running for the last 2 years and never ever had any problems.
    The signal is always good/excellent.
    Ive been well pleased with this router.

          wrtg54l linksys

          Being a oss embedded software engineer, i was always keen on sticking linux in everything i could get my hands on, hence i recomend linksys wrtg54l + dd-wrt firmware.
          Works flawlessly for me, signal is available all over the house, and the router is not even in the center

            I have Linksys WAG160N modem router. Very stylish, easy to setup and works well compare to my old Belkin54G. Only thing is not very good for streaming over network i.e. if you want to stream movies from ur pc to tv

            Read this article for more info on choosing a router:

              IMO.

              It doesn't really matter which router you buy now a days. As long as it is fairly new they all operate the same. Your best bet is to always update the firmware. These fixes are critical. I cannot express anymore how important it is to update the firmware.

              Disconnecting issues and lag spiking normally can be fixed by a software update. Also putting your router in a dust free and clear table is the best. Routers tend to overheat very easily.

              I'm using a TP-LINK WR941ND and so far so good.

                      Depends what your going to use it for.

                      Basic home - Linksys
                      Good Security - Sonicwall
                      Professional - Cisco

                      Based on your needs choose the one you want. I personally love Cisco, its hard to setup but its amazing.

                              Buffalo for a cheapo one & stick ddwrt on to it
                              else draytec & sonicwall as someone else mentioned but sonicwall a bit expensive for home use.

                              We use one at work, bullet proof
