I use a WRT54GS and it works fine, but I do have to reset the bastard every so often.

Netgear DG834GT with DGTeam custom firmware, because the official firmware is garbage.

Can you keep your current network settings after installing custom firmware? What are the chances of bricking?

I can't decide if it's because I've been seeding too much and my ISP is sending me a message or if it's my WRT54GS being a piece of shit (probably this) but my network keeps hanging and I am having trouble connecting to the router configuration page right now.

Ok, i've settled onto one....

Linksys-Cisco WRT54GL Wireless-G Broadband Router (Compatible with Linux)

http://www.amazon.com/Linksys-Cisco-WRT54GL-Wireless-G-Broadband-Compatible/dp/B000BTL0OA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1218511921&sr=1-1

about 50 bux.

[btw, my internet conneciton is 3 Mbps, and it's just for home use]

ok changed my mind...

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833127215

D-Link DIR-655 IEEE 802.11n (draft)

100 bux

btw, i have 3Mbps. internet connecttion

despite this, other PCs in my house [which will connect wirelessly to the default PC which will be wired to the router] should still benefit from higher speeds and range from this N router, correct? even tho their network cards will still be G? [or if we get them new N cards, at least?]

also: it's white! and three antennaes! how can i resistttttt
