Looking at wireless routers. Any experiences from you guys?

Why not go for the new netgear that's on sale (also a Super G)... check Hot Deals (Amazon)...
Comes out to cheaper and only $1 more before rebate... and it's "108 mbbs"
Just a matter of preference... *shrugs* I like netgear and linksys~
But I do not like microsoft routers... had too many problems w/it... and can now only be used as a wired router.

beg to disagree... spent $75 to get a desktop and a laptop online ("b", not "g" standard)
everything works like a charm and it's so much fun being able to surf sitting at the dining table or on the coauch in front of the TV...

can't beat that

I for one like D-Link & would recommend it, spent under $100 CDN for their 614+ & 650+ 802.11b+ products, works like a charm anywhere in the house. No problem with my phone or two microwaves at all, do not like any Linksys products, had some bad personal expierence i'd like to forget involving there products.

Now, where can I pickup a cheap directional antenna? Trying to get a connection in an apartment with that 650+ card & no luck.

I have had a D-Link 614+ for a year and a half, and it has performed flawlessly. Easy to set up, and even to tweak settings.
