For simplicity's sake get a wireless router with built-in modem. Cheaper too -- because that's what most people buy including ISPs who buy them by the thousand.

Netgear stuff can overheat if you don't locate it sensibly -- the older models (DG834GT etc) had silly feet added to try to get round that issue. But our Netgear DG834GT at home has been running without interruption for nearly 5 years and a second one I installed 3 years ago elsewhere has been equally trouble free.
I'd agree mostly on D-Link, though one model seemed to have gross security issues (like I broke into my neighbour's WPA protected router entirely by accident). D-Link offers more features than Netgear but at the cost of complexity in setting up.
