I just recently upgraded when my trusty DD-WRT flashed Linksys WRT-54GS went south.

After a lot of reading reviews, I settled on the Cisco E2500 Dual Band 2.4/5.8GHz 802.11g/n. I am VERY impressed for the $89 (Staples) I paid for the router!!

I pick up a strong signal on my blackberry from the back parking lot, as well as from across the street. I do not think I've rebooted it since I plugged it in 2 months ago!

NOTE: I have NEVER ONCE been asked to buy Network Magic software, (a common complaint in the reviews), but I manually configured the router, so I did not use their install CD ...

I am getting 32mbps down over WiFi on my MacBook Pro (I subscribe to Videotron 30mbps service) ....
With the old router, I was hard-pressed to get 18mbps!
