I vote for the Lynksys BSRF41. Check O/D or Fry's you can get them for under $100. I paid $179 aftr they first came out. Never a hick-up yet.

I like my Multitech Routefinder because it hooks to a serial modem for backup connectivity.

Routers Compare.

I looked throughout few BBSs, and collected "informal stats", concerning the Entry level Cable/DSL Routers.

For what ever it worth it seems that CW (Conventional Wisdom) claims:

1. Netgear RT314
2. Barricade 7004BR
3. Linksys BEFSR41

(These are all 4 port Routers, from a Router perspective the 8 ports counter part are similar).

I own few Barricades (Regular, and Wireless), and Netgear.
I like the Barricade (no real technological reason).

I would choose the one that has the features that fit the way you use the Internet.

I have a Netgear RP114 and it's a great router. 69.99 at Best Buy
Has blocking features if you have kids or don't want certain sights to show.
