My old Linksys wireless router died a couple of weeks ago. It was a reliable and functional unit so I decided to replace it with another Linksys unit, esp. since I could just dash down the street to Staples.

Bad move. The WRK54G isn't behaving well. It drops incoming connections, has a high rate of packet loss and is generally very slow in operation. In general, it performs incredibly poorly when compared to its late predecessor.

Anyone have a model of wireless router they would recommend?

We don't put our system to the tests somebody like [livejournal.com profile] allanh does, but when I bought a new Wifi router recently, research suggested Linksys models were problematic (being disloyal to one of the sources of household income doesn't trouble me.) The Belkin Pre-N model I chose has been satisfactory on all counts, with the one flaw that it doesn't work well with Paul's Cisco-configured laptop (which doesn't work well with anything!)

It gets old having my Cisco-configured laptop that works everywhere but in my Cisco-equipped home.
