Any thoughts on US Robotics wireless routers?

I picked up a couple of new USR 5430 (802.11g) wireless bridge/gaming adapters nice and cheap from Sam's Club. The back of the package shows it being hooked up to the USR 8054 "Turbo" Router. Any advantages to using that one vs. the USR 5461 "MAXg" router (w/ print server) or another brand of 802.11g router?

I have an older MS 802.11b router right now and about every hour, all PCs connected (including hard wired) lose IP addresses. They come back with a reset, but it's time for a new one.

It is not a matter of advantage.

Most Brands guarantee that the Consumer Bridge (Wireless game card etc.), would work with certain model made by them.

Would it work with another Brand? May be with devices that are based on similar Chipset.

In other words if you buy another Brand make sure it has liberal return policy.
