I have used DLink, Netgear, and Linksys.  As much as I dislike Cisco, my
Linksys has been my best AP/Router.  I needed QOS for my VOIP phone and
DLINK does not support that ANYWHERE in their line.  I HAD to goto
Linksys and the fact that Linksys uses Linux as the OS was sweet also. 
I like my WRT54G, it has done a good job.  My 2 cents...8)

Why do they suck?  I think linksys rocks.  Just lock it down.

support by replacing my Linksys router.  Anybody have any info whether
one brand/model is better/worse than others?  I've tried searching for
reviews and comparisons online, but it's hard to find ones that look at
all the current models since it changes so fast.  If they're all about
the same, that makes it easier - I'll just look for one with the best
price after rebate.
