Over the last few months I've tried Wireless ADSL routers from 4 different manufacturers, using 54g wireless cards with WPA encryption.
The Belkin one would randomly refuse to allow 1 or 2 wireless clients to connect.

Over the last few months I've tried Wireless ADSL routers from 4 different manufacturers, using 54g wireless cards with WPA encryption.
The Belkin one would randomly refuse to allow 1 or 2 wireless clients to connect.
The Netgear one had very poor range (even though it was supposedly "RangeMax").
The Linksys one would randomly refuse to assign IP addresses to wireless clients after they'd connected.

Review of ZyXEL Prestige 660HW-T1 - wireless router - with ZyXEL ZyAIR G-202 Wireless LAN USB Adapter
Advantages: Easy Installation, reliable, good value Disadvantages: Limited customer services
The ZyXel Prestige router is affordable and reliable. I haven't set up a wireless network before so was happy to discover that the Prestige was easy to install and set-up with a multimedia presentation and documnetation to guide you through the process. The router provides a fast, reliable ADSL connection and the small, unobtrusive unit can be easily hidden out of site. The unit provides great value for money as it comes with a free USB connector ...

The P-660HW series enables network administrators to allocate network resources and to guarantee Quality of Service (QoS). The MBM (Media Bandwidth Management) function prioritizes media services, and increases productivity and efficiency in daily operations by tailoring a system to specific demands such as VoIP, video streaming, video-conferencing or MP3 applications.
