Apple Airport extreme if you just want a dual band router

If you want to add a 1 or 2 TB HD as well then the Apple Time Capsule combines airport extreme with a server grade HD

I have the Time Capsule,it has really good Wireless coverage typically 100 yards in a circle from the TC, it switches bands automatically as a device connects so 2.4 will get a 2.4 channel and 5 will get a 5 channel

The HD is designed to work either Wired or wireless, I use it to back up 2 macs via Time Machine so by using a TC you get a very reliable wireless device and a wireless hard Drive

I have 13 active networks near me (see screen shot) and not once in 2 years have I had any problem with the TC getting interference, the TC or Airport Extreme are a bit more money but quality always is, either of these options will not let you down
