I wanna set up a wireless network at home. I've been reading reviews and have set my mind on a G standarded router. I've been told by co-workers to either get a Linksys, D-Link or Netgear router. Does anyone have any positive or negative comments concerning the brands that I just mentioned? And could you please provide me some recommendations?

I have a Buffalo Tech 54g router that was reviewed by Tom's (somewhere on ths site) and aside from stupid noob blunders it seems to work well. The interface is displayed on a web page and the tech support folks were pretty knowledgeable.

The Linksys and Buffalo ones are nice. I've heard the D-Link has had some problem, but overall seems to be recommended; same goes for the Netgear.
Buffalo or Linksys, both have good tech support in my experience.

I've heard lots of good things about linksys and D-link. D-link rouers/adapters supports 22 mbps, so if you've got a high-speed internet-connection, then D-link might be interesting...
