    I recently bought the Netgear 54 Mbps Wireless ADSL Firewall Router Model DG834G, but have had a few problems with it dropping the connection. I'm moving out of my flat and have a choice to sell it, or get a new one.

    I've read elsewhere that netgear isn't so good.

    I'm wondering which one people would recommend. Or should I stick with the one I've got?

    cheers

    ps. I've already updated it with the latest driver. I've only had problems with it on the odd occasion, but still, if there's something much better for me out there, I'd rather get that. It's reliability that I'm after more than anything else.

    My flat is only about 10x10 metres.
