Hey guys, I was wondering what type of router you are all using and how you're fairing with them. I just ordered a Draft-N router from belkin (the N1), has anybody used it? Even if you haven't, which router(s) do you think are the best right now?
Best Wireless Router?

I have never really been a fan of Belkin but cant really say no that isn't a good router. Most routers do their job and you wont notice a large difference between any of the manufacturers.
I would stick with Linksys, the have by far the highest quality reception and as well as the best security features. I have found many that WPA wont work correctly and you cant even stop the broadcasting of your SSID.
Best router i think for quality and price: WRT54GS
Stick with Cisco, they know what they are doing when it comes to networking.

I agree, although I use a D:Link that came with Verizon Wireless. I always recommend LinkSys to friends,family.

Check out the Belkin N1 Vision....it is way overkill for iPhones as it offers support for N but it is supposed to have superior signal range. The most appealing part about the router is that it has a detailed display that shows various statistics including usage by individual users, bandwidth being used, etc.... It is pricey with an msrp of $200 but if you are into this type of router you might want to check it out.

this is the linksys wireless n with gigabit... so you attach an external harddrive and have it shared on the network... great idea... lil overkill for my needs right now but nice to have..

So great when you have 3 of them for sound around the home.

wireless back up to a hard disk
or get them both for unlimited range

I used Belkin successfuly for many years and never had any problems. Now I use an Apple Airport Express and I love this one.
I use to be a Netgear fan.
I don't like Belkin
I use linksys (They aren't as good as what they were before)
But there is soo much support for linksys out there.
There is even a linksys forum. That shows you how to hack the router with different firmwares to allow you to do different things its crazy.
So my vote would be Linksys.
