Hi,

I'm planning to upgrade my old router to something pore powerfull.
I would like to have draft-n support, dual band (2,4 and 5Ghz) and a gigabit switch, I don't care about a possibility to connect usb hard-drives to the router. Currently I'm looking at Netgear WNDR3700, D-Link DIR-825 and DIR-855.
Which of these routers is the most stable/reliable?

D-Link support has gone down the crapper with the DGL-4500 being their latest scandal.

I'm currently running the NetGear WNDR3700 with the factory (stable) firmware and it runs great!

Haven't upgraded to the latest firmware yet as I'm waiting for them to iron out some bugs, but so far from what I've seen in their forums, it looks promising compared to what I've seen for well over a year now in the D-Link Forums both @ D-Link and DSLReports.

I'm sure you will love it as it's the best router currently on the market.

Most of the people who are currently having problems with the 3700 are ones who updated to the Beta driver and are using the USB port.

I've been surfing, downloading, watching HD Movies and TV shows all without any hiccups. My last router couldn't even come close to this kind of performance.
