I have a Belkin N300 setup at my lady friend's house - works great and honestly doesn't drop much at all (or if it does, I'm not made aware of it).

The one you listed should be find but speaking of getting bad reviews of constant drops....

Yeah, I know. Problem is, I am seeing that report on just about every router in my price range I have looked at. Figured I might as well just pick one and see what happens for me. I'm not buying any of these online so I have the option of easy returns if the thing sucks. Found this at Best buy for $96. Definitely the most bang for the buck if it works without any issues.

My only con on it right now is the lack of a built in bandwidth meter in the firmware.

Just curious why you need to monitor the bandwidth on your lan? Does your ISP charge per Mb or something?

No, it's just that I've noticed a bit of a funny pattern with you regarding advice threads. You post a question about something, then get a bunch of answers, then contest the advice givers, and do whatever you initially had in mind anyway. When I first saw this thread, the first thing I thought was, "He's going to get a bunch of suggestions, and ignore them all and go with something completely different."

Nothing against you, I just found it funny.

Ummm OK? the Buffalo router and the dlink router both got lots of people stating they had several internet wifi drops. I figure I might as well work my way from the lower price on up. BTW, I didn't even go for the lower priced routers. Went straight to the $100 routers. That was hard for me.

The buffalo router I was looking at was only getting 3 star ratings on average.
My big issue with the dlink was the way the USB port worked. That was a big drawback for me. I was going to get it until I saw that. Had nothing to do with ignoring advice.
The linksys routers didn't have the USB port I needed.

And cut me some slack. I have had a really SHITTY week. The thread gave me a FEW options that just didn't really pan out for me. Since I didn't exactly get a lot of hits in this thread I figured I might as well go the route I chose.

Well, worked like a champ until it hit 1 year. Does anyone make a product that lasts anymore?
