There is no best really....depends what features you want on it.
I would probably go for a brand like Belkin, Netgear, Edimax have some good models to. As always though, search around a bit and review different routers. Some models can be really bad for say..wireless..whereas others are spot on. A lot I come across also have really wierd design-faults and no matter how many you try that you think are faulty, they always turn out the same way...crap!
In my experience of late, avoid any unknown brands (granted edimax was unknown to me at one point, but they have changed my mind), avoid replacement pre-supplied stuff, like bt voyager-type routers, D-Link (wow, going downhill at break-neck speed), same with Linksys (a division of cisco? damn shame).
Oh and dynamode and plexus have some really cheap models if you haven't got a lot to spend. They work well from the reviews I have seen, but might not offer you all the features you want.
Hope thats a start  |
