All Netgear for me. 😀

Here, here...

I have had some really bad experiences with Linksys routers.

ive also never had an issue with them, last router i had from them was a 8 port with parellel printer routing as well, worked like a charm, no i have a 4 port wireless one and itrs also fine

netgear OTOH sucks ass

Every single wireless netgear router I have attempted to setup has failed in 5 minutes or less. I think thats 4 in a row. They just lock up time and time again. I hate how they demand a connection too.

Disagree - Owner of a WRT54G that's rock solid.

d-link is crap, and i've had mixed experiences with netgear, but never had a problem with linksys. they are my go-to company whenever i need reliability over value.

 

[archcommus]

Anyone realize that at least one person by now has said each brand sucks and that each brand is great. So, forget the opinions.

 

[sciencewhiz]

nobody has said they hate SMC. Count me as the second person who loves SMC.

i <3 linksys

 

[MithShrike]

I do tech support and frickin' Linksys adapters are soooo sh!ttacular.

Failed crap:
soho SMC router
soho Dlink router
2 netgear Nics
flakey crap:
1 linksys out of 9 needs rebooted. the other 8 go months without a hitch.

Never a problem:
Netgear mr814

It should be obvious by now that the OP is trolling.

WRT54G owner here. absolutely love it. used to have netgear before this, and dlink before that. could never go back. netgear was prettier but was a piece of crap. only time my linksys needs rebooting is if i unplug it by mistake... otherwise it works flawlessly for months on end.

I have a WRT54G, which I flashed with a 3rd party firmware that gives more options. Since then, I have to reset the router ever week or so, because it won't let me connect to webpages sometimes. I'm not sure what the problem is, but I'm betting that it's a problem with the firmware, and not my router. On the other hand I also have a belkin router that sucks hard chunks.

i have a WRT54G as well for a pretty long while now. its served me flawlessly. never had any headaches with it, setup very quickly and easily. never had to reset or fiddle with it since. i love it, linksys rox!! i had SMC before, was also good, but router ended up crapping out before long.

I have a WRT54G, which usually crashes the internet once in a while... No worries though..

Tech support is very persistent until they accept your RMA though lol.

But the antennas for the WUSB54G's break too easily for my liking.
