Anyone recommend a Wireless router that isn't rubbish?

[john]

Having just wasted a fair bit of time on a wireless router which has packed in am now in the market for another decent one. With or without ADSL modem.

Had a DLink DIR655 which was very good indeed until the wirelss died in it :twisted: Almost tempted to get another but once bitten etc.

All i can recommend is a Netgear router, been using one wireless for years without any troubles. Looks nice too!

You could make your own

I'll second the Belkin WRT54GS. I actually have a virtually unused one I could sell you pretty cheap.

I prefer to not go wireless. Pain in the ass port forwarding a router to get the best download speeds.

Netgear DG834G all the way for me, mine's been faultless and we use them at work for our Home-workers, had one power-supply go flaky but it's a relatively standard 12v unit so easy enough to find a replacement.

I have a spare ADSL Netgear Rangemax DG834PN sitting around twiddling its wireless thumbs


its the one with the flashy blue leds denoting its 6 internal antennas.

Cosign on the Netgear recommendations. I work with these and they are as bullet-proof as this kit gets. DG834GT all the way, running the Jesus firmware

if you're technical, original Linksys WRT54G, or now the WRT54GL version. it's linux based and there are open source and commercial third party firmware to give you a vast array of configuration options. Tomato was an highly rated firmware to put on it.

however seeing that you had a DIR655 (which I'm currently using), it may not suit your needs as the WRT54G doesn't have wireless N or Gigabit Ethernet like the DIR655 does.
