I need recommendations for a wireless router at ~$50

Here's the breakdown:

- Currently have DSL broadband w/ a functional router in a small apartment (~700 sq. ft?)
- I'm okay w/ the router itself; the speed isn't anything to rave about, but it does the job (I'm signed up for the most affordable DSL plan anyway, so I'm not sure upgrading to a faster router will do, if anything)
- What I'm looking for is a wireless router w/ a wireless printer support and to hook up an external HDD to it as well.
- Essentially, I'm looking for a dependable router w/ 2 USB ports.

It's not a dire need as everything I have works fine, but it'd be a nice upgrade to not have to hook up the HDD and/or the printer to my wife's/my laptop every time we want to print something/share something wirelessly.

I'm looking for something that's affordable, maybe ~$50 or so. Again, price and dependability is a priority over speed and any other bells and whistles not mentioned. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
 
Refurbished WNDR3700v1 for $55 is a good choice. (only one USB however) Check eBay for sellers, occasionally "daily deal" sites have them as well.
 
Hi.

Lots of wireless printers that do not need to be hooked in directly; I have a Canon that prints wirelessly and works great.

If you do not want to get a new printer, and I understand:

$35 after rebate

Also cheap

Newegg carries over a hundred routers priced 66 or less:

Note: price search higher than 50 due to rebates...they list by pre rebate price.
