I didn't want to believe the Internet lady that the problem was not
theirs, but on my end, until I decided to try see if there was an
update for my Netgear, that was losing connection also almost every
day or worse, needing constant reboots. <br>
<br>
Turns out there actually had been quite a few updates for my 4-year
old, and after running the most recent, it got the right idea and
has not misbehaved since. YMMV., but maybe it's worth a try.<br>

you need is a G router. If you want "N," the WRT400N has been
treating me very well the last few years and now only costs $60.
It doesn't have gigabit, but it still runs faster than many
gigabit switched N routers as far as wireless performance goes and
I just use a D-Link Green Gig-E switch that I have connected to
the router for my PowerMac and my MacBook Pro (when the MBP is
wired at my desk, that is).

<div>Incidentally, what I like about the WRT54GL is that it has
the removable external antennas -- that allows you to easily
connect larger hi-gain antennas as needed. Or, as I just did at
church, hook it to a modified DBS satellite dish for a very hi
gain bi-quad antenna.</div>

If so, any recommendations on a decent, inexpensive
router? I think I paid around $50-ish for this one. I
have one hard-wired, 2 wi-fi and my Android-based HTC Evos
to think about.<br clear="all">
