I have this dlink wireless/wired router.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16833127215

My PS3, Xbo360, MacPro and my brothers PC wired into it and all my wireless devices connect to it with no issues at all.

My Macbook Pro, iTouches and Wii can see it with ease. Works fine with comcast net.

Was well worth the price for it since the lynksys i used to own was crap.

Only once in a while i need to reset the router, but also the cable modem cause at peek times comcast goes to chit.

Other then that this is what i use and what works for what i have.

Since Cisco purchased Linksys, their routers have been much better in my opinion. I have 4 laptops wirelessly connected, 1 pc wired, and 1 Brother printer wirelessly connected. I also have an Insignia (Best Buy brand) DVD wirelessly connected and my Netflix comes through just fine.

I was thinking about getting this to replace the old router that my girlfriend has in her house. At that price, it's not too bad.
