Ok so I'm on O2 Broadband LLU (get about 5mb on a good day). The O2 Wireless Box II has been playing up lately; restarts, NAT issues on Xbox Live and pretty rubbish WiFi signal in general.

I have had a Netgear DG834GT in the past, but sold it on. Can't remember why I went back to the O2 router exactly, think it was NAT problems again and not the best wireless range. I have found a couple of DG834GT's (Sky branded, but flashable) for about £20 odd, so thats an option again.

However, I have also found the newer Netgear DGN2000 for £35, which would let me get into the Wireless N game. Of course I would need to upgrade both my Dell Studio 1555 and my brothers Inspiron 1545 with Wireless N pci-e mini cards, but I don't think they are too expensive are they?

I like the look of the DGN2000 and hear its quite good with O2 Broadband. Any opinions or suggestions on which one to go for?
 
My fault, probably should have put my price range. The Billion looks nice, but its way to expensive for me! £40 would probably be my max.
 
I haven't found a single ADSL router that has great modem and routing capabilities and that isn't under £50, so I've set up a DG834GT tandem with a DIR615 (dd-wrt flashed). Total cost was £35 and it works very very well :)
