Peter,

I purchased a Linksys e2000 from Walmart over a year ago for about 65 bucks 
and installed dd-wrt on it. It's the best router I've ever had. I only use the 
wifi for my android phone and tablet, but the gigabit ports rock. It has N 
capability which I have used on a my laptop a couple of times, just to try, 
but I'm usually hard wired anyway. It's a great great device. I would like to 
buy a couple more just to keep around incase it ever fails. It has been 
running non-stop for almost two years. I love it.

Buffalo has a couple that come with dd-wrt pre-installed that I have heard 
great things about, but never used myself. I wouldn't own a router I couldn't 
install dd-wrt on.

Hi All,

My aging wireless router is starting to act up and it seems that I'll need a 
new one in short order.
My current router is a Linksys wireless G (before they became Cisco) with four 
10/100Mb ports.

I'm looking for something similar in a wireless N variety with 4 gigabit 
Ethernet ports.
Note: I'm only interested in a router, not a modem/router combo unit.

I've actually been very happy with my Linksys. Is Linksys/Cisco still a good 
brand?
Does anyone have any recommendations or experiences they can share on brands 
and models?

Any thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks,
Peter
