Hi, could someone recommend the best option for wireless router for home use? Between Linksys WRT54GH and Asus rtG32, which would be a better option? Since WRT54GH has a builtin antenna, i am concerned about signal strength.

My priority is good steady signal.

Thanks
Ramesh

Have been using Belkin for a while.. no problems at all. Easy to set up and use. Forgot the model no. but got it from chroma for Rs.1500 (it is a model higher than the basic one which retails for about Rs.1200).

I have been using Linksys WRT54G for last 3 yrs with no prolems. I think it's latest aavatar is WRT54G2, even Netgear is good & slightly cheaper as it provides 1 yr warranty.

Asus routers are good! I'm using the RT-N13U though..

Thanks very much Kalpik. I have got an ASUS working with me now. Not very happy with it. I have a problem connecting with my mobile. Every time I do the settings, it works only for a couple of days. Wonder if that s a problem with the settings or the router itself.

I now regret not getting the Linksys (if it s the router problem)

thanks socrates.

In case u opt for the WRT54G2 check out *socrates0.blogspot.com/2007/12/how-to-configure-linksys-wrt54g.html there should not be too much of a difference :D

Netgear WGR 614 is a good option too, Been using it for 2yrs now. No problems at all and good range too.
Specs say it has a second internal antenna to boost range

@MODS
