Used to hear Linksys were the best, but then heard of some security
issues. I think they released and update/fix, and haven't heard anything
since so I assume that means it worked.
But, I've also heard Netgear is better.
Nothing here nor there on D-Link except I know the name.

All things being equal, I'd go Linksys, but that's just cosmetic.
I despise the silver/chrome of some Netgears, and them for even making ANY
that way! I'd like to kill whoever made silver "the new black". I hate
it!

Ahem, so anyway, anybody feel free to toss in your 2c

BTW, I'm thinking of connecting a gigabit switch to it, not sure on brand
or even necessity of that. So, if that enters into it..

Yes I would also go with Linksys. From my experience they seem to be a
lot more stable. Linksys also has gigabit routers. Connecting gigabit
swtiches to non-gigabit routers is useless if you're using more than 1
internal network. In other words, you will need to have all your
computers connected to the switch if you want to use the full potential
of gigabit technology

I have used D-Link for Homes and Bussinesses of various sizes. But everyone
has a favorite and all complain about tech support, so it really is up to
what you are looking for in your equipment.

Ok, I'll top post too I guess.
Went with Netgear WGT634U, 108mbps wireless, AND USB2 networked drive
hookup. The later sold me in a second Costs a fortune to do
separately.
Haven't hooked it up yet, but will let everybody know if it's not up to
snuff.
I will mention it is the ACCURSED F-ING SILVER, which I am so sick of in
electronics I could PUKE - so if you're reading this Netgear F-U!
Damn, why can't anybody make anything BLACK anymore, or even "putty"
(Linksys blue/black trademark colors are cool though).
It also has nice little vent holes on the top to collect tons of dust into
the internals and blow up at some point (probably the idea).
At least they didn't put a fan in it too.
Guess I'll have to put it in a drawer or something.

Oh, one last thing: I did try calling their tech support.
It took 3 days to get thru. There's no msg. stating their hrs, so I
figured (hoped) they'd be open after 5pm and called a little before and
after that. The line automatically went busy and never connected all 3
days, after saying "transferring" or whatever like it was going to work.
Nice phone system Netgear!
When I did finally get thru, the rep seemed to know what she was talking
about, although it was obviously another damn call center in India (you
can always tell by the odd accent - a result of them being taught to
suppress their native one and try to sound American but resulting in some
odd combination you can't place).
