Default Name a reliable router.

I'm using the linksys WRT54G and every so often I have to reset it because it loses communication with my cable modem. Anyway, enough is enough and I've decided that I need to get a more reliable router.

Does anyone have a router with which they've experienced no problems? Something simple. I just need a single WAN connection with both wired and wireless output.

Cheers,
Pogo

Netgear routers are generally considered the best ones you can get. Easy to configure, reliable and good value for money (unlike Belkin)

I can back this up as I've had two different ones - DG834G and DG834PN, both of which I've never had problems with. I only upgraded to the latter because it had a better wireless coverage, as well as supports ADSL2/2+. DG834PN also comes with a wireless adapter if you want to use a PC wirelessly [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Netgear and Dlink both have quality routers in my experiences. I'm not a fan of linksys despite its "good" name.
