help picking a new wireless router

[jhooga]

So I am in need of updating my wireless router as its pretty old. I currently have linksys srx200 any thoughts on what to get?

If you don't need wireless N then get this one.

Kind of thinking about going up to Wireless N. What do you suggest for that route?

 

[johnb35]

I don't keep up on wireless N. How far away are you from the router?

its in my house umm maybe like 150 feet or so

You would definately need one with external antennaes.

probably go with one of the dlinks though. Maybe someone else will chime in with a better model with actual experience from it.

I have a WRT54GL and it's fantastic, currently running Tomato on it.

I literally used the stock Linksys firmware for only one day so I can't say I have any experience with it but I hear it's a bit shoddy and doesn't allow access to a good handful of features the hardware is capable of.
