"Best" s a pretty general term. For basic routing, Anything will do. I would buy a decent wireless router, and disable the wireless portion - you may need it in the future.

At this point I would go for the "N" Series...I happen to like Netgear.

This is the best router right now IMO. Draft N stuff sometimes is hit or miss but I haven't seen any bad ones of these right now and I've installed probably 30 or 40 of them.

You didn't indicate a price range, but based on your port requirements and looking for a "best" I'd suggest something like this:

Touche. :thumbsup:

If there is something that I hate on forums it is the open BEST questions.

There is No Best in any thing in life, there is always the most viable compromise that depends on One's specific situation.
