Help Choosing a new router

ZrByte · 13-03-2006, 00:46

For a while now I have had an Origo 802.11g wireless router (the 108mbps turbo model). While this model is fine for basic web browsing it does have its shortfalls. Things such as a p2p can cause the router to reboot, Occasionally large file transfers over the network can also cause the device to reboot. And the interface isnt that good either.
Finally I have gotten sick of this and have decided the time has come to replace my router with a better model. Though obviously the question now is, What router do I go for?
The router needs a minimum of 4 ports (Standard usually anyway)
Needs to be Wireless G Standard (108mbps is preferable though 54mbps is acceptable)
Needs to be stable since thats the only reason I am getting rid of the old one
It would also be nice if it had VPN and print server functions though these arnt important.

Any reccomendations welcome.

I don't know about vpn and print server, but my linksys WRT54G has worked flawlessly from day one (as the wired linksys router it replaced did). It's one of the most popular routers on this forum I believe.

Just thought I would let you know that I bought that router you reccomended, Has increased my signal strength for my wireless devices from an average of 70%-80% upto full 100% strength and 100% signal quality.
The interface is a lot better too, and the descriptions are quite handy. Thanks for the suggestion mate, time will tell if it is going to be stable but im impressed so far
