I've used many routers. Some better than others.

I've never had any problems with Linksys stuff, aside from occasionally needing to update the firmware. My last router was a Belkin, which was fine for about a year and then started having problems maintaining connections and generally occasionally acting flaky. I replaced it with a D-Link DIR-655 based on many internet reviews.

It's been the best router I've ever used. Rock solid stability, tons of features, gigabit nic, up to 300mb 802.11N connections, great range on both 802.11G/N, etc, etc. Likewise, I would have to reboot the Belkin monthly to keep my DSL up and running. Haven't had to reboot the 655 since I first set it up, 3 months ago.

Definitely check it out if you're in the market for a higher-end, heavy-featured consumer router.
