ok then ladys, I'm looking for opinions, stats and photos (or images, don't hotlink) of your current fave router with wireless connectivity.
I've got to replace all my network hardware so I'm looking to update the router and wireless parts to a better system but have very little idea about whats "best" in this area.
we've thick walls round here (three food thick grannit walls have a nasty wireless signal habbit, spend all their time snorting it up) tend to block out 99% of signals so I'm looking for the best of the best to get around this!
 
I have Linksys WRT54GL router and it is great. I was wary of the problems associated with some wireless routers but I haven't had a signal dropped or slower yet. I have large house with old thick walls so this router impressed me very much. Works fine with DS Lite.

WRT54GL is based on tried and tested version of 1,2,3 & 4 WRT54G. Current version 5 of WRT54G has lower spec and does not uses reliable Linux firmware as used in older version so Linksys released WRT54GL - 'L' represents Linux version - to meet demands.

However, it doesn't have ADSL modem and it is connected to Linksys ADSL AG241 router.
 
I like the Dray tek range of routers, they come with everything you need and are just good routers. Only thing is some of them start at around £190
 
The best you'll ever get for SOHO are the Cisco 800w series. I'll recommend a Cisco 877w as they're robust and upgradeable (IOS).
Catch is, you'll need to know the IOS programming - and they don't come cheap. However you get:
Security
Upgradeablity

Expandibility
Compatibility
