    well linksys is pretty good. go to a computer shop and ask for another router or probably bring your own router there and they could probably give you the same model.

    linksys are no longer good, they have been deteriorating over the last couple of years.

    2DamCerius My eyes for your brain...fair trade.

    I would recommend getting a Belkin model, they're okay.

    Hey loony, it's be much easier if you instead suggested a brand instead of people bringing one up and you shooting it down.

    I heard D-Link was good.

    Also I have a WRT54G router and I'm tired of it, it's giving me the same problem the with the OP and it has so much problems with the PS3.

    d-link ive never had a router from so can't say. It might help if the OP states whether they are using cable or DSL.

    I have a Netgear WGR614 Wireless-G Router and it works wonderfully. Perfect connectivity with my DS and PS3, easy set up, easy to manage, wonderful thing. To top it off, it doesn't look too bad either and takes up less room than my modem.

    I am using it with a DSL connection if that makes any real difference.

    I've never had a problem with my d-link router

    the only time is when i tried playing battlefield heroes and it disconnects after every game, no clue why. Every other game i've tried, from 360, wii, and some PC games have worked online fine.

    Netgear? But my old dynalink died out on few after like 7 years. So I'll recommend that.
