good wireless router for £40?

hello all, whats the best router i can get for £40 inc vat its got to have 4 port switch in it and not fussed about wireless speed as long as its reliable.
needs to have built in adsl modem too.
i have a linksys wag54 which is crap since its wireless is unreliable it keeps dropping connections sometimes.

Speedtouch 585 perhaps? Wireless 54G + 4 Port Switch Built-in and ADSLModem.

At that price I'd second the speedtouch - not perhaps the best featured router, but simple enough to set up and seems to be very stable and reliable

yep all im after is stability and reliability. not bothered how hard it is to setup, iv setup loads of routers before, beklin, draytek, linksys, dlink, netgear etc so it won;t be too difficult to do.

since the router is not for me i just don't want it dropping wireless connections or dsl connection.

if you say speedtouch then i will get that one.

done a little more reading, how do you guys think tht linksys WAG354G fairs? is it better than the speedtouch 585? price is just the same.
