Good Router?

I am trying to get a new router. I know that according this Linksys and D-link sucks. Right now I am using Linksys -G (except its ready to fall apart any second.)

Recommend me a good router.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Honestly, I've had netlink and d-link routers that work just fine. And I've had more expensive ones that suck. Overall, I don't really see the reason to spend a lot of extra money on a "high end" router, unless you need a lot of channels.

Just get one that supports b+g and you should be fine.

You can download custom firmware for most routers that works better than the default bloatware that usually comes with them.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Buffalo is pretty good. The router itself is light and minimal, while the configuration is deeper (and more graphically pleasing) than Linksys.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

If you like custom firmware and stuffs, the Linksys routers with linux-based firmware (WRT54GL) should work for you.

I usually build routers from thin clients (IGEL thin clients with one additional PCI slot are good) and use fli4l or ipcop as a routing software.

URLs:
fli4l: News
IPCop.org :: The bad packets stop here!

Also works with old desktop systems, if you can live with the size of them. Pretty neat for a lot of advanced settings and a rock-stable system (4 years router uptime is nothing special).

I was speaking idiomatically.
