Thinking about buying a new one. I've had a linkys WRT54GS for 3-4 years, and it works but my internet constantly stalls or goes out whenever my roommate logs on his laptop. If he's streaming something, my speeds are low, latency super high when playing games etc. Most other cases/times my internet is fine.
Any advice?

Update the firmware. There are custom ones out there too. I have the same router and the only thing that bogs it down is torrentz.

The TOMATO (http://www.polarcloud.com/tomato) custom firmware is pretty awesome. Had a relative with a Linksys that was giving them problems, flashed that sucker to CFW, and now everything's gravy. :pimp

This will not work on Linksys WRT54G/GS v5 or newer WRT54G/GS routers.
