Seeing that the router market is a minefield, i just wondered if anyone has any useful reviews/suggestions about choice of router for the VM XL Package.

I currently run Vista 64Bit Ultimate, for my sins, and have the NTL 255 Modem. Had great reliability and stability with my Linksys BEFSR41 but its a little dated now, and i need Wireless for the Wifes Wii.

I then plumped for a Linksys WRT160N, great to set up, but an absolute devil to keep connected, and boy oh boy does it get warm. Possibly the reason for the disconnects. Stuck my old BEFSR41 back on and all is well.

So now i need to go and replace the WRT160N for something else. Was looking at the Belkin N1 range but also i quite like the Netgear WNR3500

Anyone any recommends?

Cheers peeps
