I have a Linksys router and it has done me well but it keeps dropping the wireless for 1 minute 3-4 times a day. I think it is time to get a new one. I need to port forward and I run several servers at home that I access remotely. We also run the following at the house:
5 wireless laptops
1 wired computer
1 wired NAS
wireless wii
wired Blueray
wireless iPad
3 wireless android phones
1 wired home security DVR

Dang I have a bunch of hardware.

Now ... any suggestions on a good quality router? I would like good wireless with G and N and would prefer 4 or more giga connections.

Is that old router a WRT54G or some variant? If so put the DD-WRT firmware on it. I have 3 of them on my home network and they are rock solid.

i bought a cisco linksys E1500 in the last month or 2 . i like it but wish i Had spent a bit more and got a E 2500 or higher ver. for more versatility.
the unit i got was on sale and I also had a promo deal buying it at the time.

Also ... why would you have 3 routers on the same home network ??

Wifi coverage. Only one router is the main router. The other two are.configured as access points.

Ahh.. that makes sense. Is your casa really that big or you just like full bars?
