Netgear Wireless Router for Video and Gaming WNDR37AV Review
Best range, reliability, and throughput of any wifi router I've owned. And the colored LEDs look BAD ASS in the dark.
Works great with wifi devices all over the house (~2500 sq ft) and the yard too.
I choose to get a single dual band router for simplicity (don't want two routers), and because of the backwards compatibility. Unfortunately my PS3 (first gen, so might be different for the newer ones), and my Wii don't support 802.11n, hence the dual band router. The xbox360 wifi connection is now 100% reliable and great for streaming hi def netflix, etc., (xbox 360 regularly had wifi connectivity problems with my previous router - even at 20 ft away with minimal wall interference).
They must've figured out some crazy advances in antenna technology, because I still can't believe how this router outperforms my WRT600N, which had 3 adjustable external antennas.
Only problem I had was with trying to configure from the CD -- Windows 7 did not like that at all, said the router was improperly installed which was BS. Don't bother with the CD, just open a browser to http://192.168.0.1 (the typical def GW) and familiarize yourself with the options - it will pay off in the long run. Be sure to change the admin password (the default is "password"), and make sure you secure your wifi networks (both of them, since dual band).
