wireless router recommendations

I have been looking at the Dlink DI-624 wireless router for a home setup. Anyone have recommendations on a router other than this one?

GroundZero... for your Linksys Wireless G router.. have you flashed the BIOS with this hack?

http://www.techtv.com/screensavers/d...659113,00.html

I am thinking of getting the Linksys G router.. and flashing it with this new firmware. Has anyone done this? Does it work ok?

I like Linksys products.. and now that they are owned by Cisco.. makes them even more appealing to me.

That DLink looks like a nice router.. I havent used or know anyone that has a DLink so I cant comment on them.

The linksys is a great wireless router.. I used to have a Dlink B router but sold it and bought the G Linksys router.

I am running the hack on mine and its rock solid. I have 3 wireless computers attached to it at home and also 1 Dell PDA.

Good buy I think.

the hack adds more options to the router that firmwares from linksys would never have

I, too, have been searching and I've even purchased the DI624 and WGL520 pci card...........(was planning on going wired to my main pc then wireless to daughter's pc).........BUT....if you read a while on the following forum it may induce vomiting..........I still have a week left to return 'em and may do that very thing 'cuz I just can't stomach the probs these folks talk about..........no way.........I can definitely wait to go wireless for all this hassle.........
