Linksys or Netgear, they're both pretty good. A lot of them come with automagic configurators these days too, so you just punch a few buttons and it sets up the encryption stuff for you. It's best to buy a Linksys router, AND Linksys WLAN card, or a Netgear router and Netgear WLAN card. You can mix them, but if you've never done it before, it's best to match them up, as the wizards and things they use can set it up for you. Indeed, a lot of places like Broadbandbuyer sell bundles of a router and card. If you've never done it before, buying all the same kit can save a few headaches.
