Netgear Router

I have finally gotten rid of the worthless-piece-of-junk Linksys router that has been giving me headaches for the last three years. Circuit City had a $90 instant rebate on the latest Netgear router, which is just too good a deal to pass up. It was a snap to set up from my Linux machine, and it seems to be quite happy with our Windows XP laptop. The latter would always cause the Linksys to reboot during DHCP! Lately, even my OS X laptop from work caused the Linksys to reboot every five minutes, which was the final straw. So, if you’re looking for a good router, get Netgear, not Linksys!
