I just got a Linksys WRT54G router the other day. It's replacing the D-Link DI-624+ I had. It seems a much better router.

Note: I realise the Linksys isn't that much of an upgrade (although the D-link didn't appear to support limiting access by MAC, and the security on the Linksys is more configurable. The reason I replaced the d-link, however, is that the wireless connection was becoming increasingly unstable (not helped by the fact that one of my neighbours has an unsecured Netgear wireless network that always seemed to be operating on the same channel - whatever I set the d-link to), and the router itself started rebooting fairly frequently, and I lost the settings a few times.

Also, I have now had two d-link pcmcia network cards just die on me, and am currently on my third.

In short, I am not too impressed with d-link anymore..
