DSL modem/router recommendations

[acole1]

My old D-Link DSL bridge died today and I am in need of another. This is the second one that has died in about 3 years of use, so I would like something a little more reliable.

I would also like to have one with wireless N, although only G would be acceptable. Another requirement would be B&M availability at stores like BB, Frys, Office Depot, Staples, etc..

Right now I am eyeing a Netgear DGN2200 at Frys for $100.

You can also try talking me into getting the DSL modem and router separately....


Edit:
We may have a winner: Netgear DGND3300 for $150 at Frys.

The combos are Not as good as the stand-alone devices.

You are better off getting a simple DSL Modem, and a stand-alone Router.

I have been using that router for about 6 months now with 10Mbit DSL and it has been effortless. It runs everything I throw at it from gaming, torrents, streaming content and I have rarely ever had to even access the admin page to do anything. Current uptime from the router page is over 86 days without a reboot. Has more features in things like QOS than I will probably ever use.

I used to agree with that but the netgear one has changed my opinion. It really is well designed .
I probably would have never bought it but I got it as is for $20 because the person said it wouldn't connect to their pc.
I unboxed it, pressed the reset , entered the dsl info, and it has worked ever since.
