I am using a D-link WBR-1310 right now. My laptop regularly loses its wireless connection. To fix this, I usually have to restart my laptop and if that does not work then I have to reset the router. Therefore, forcing me port forward everything again and re-adjust router settings. I guess cheap products breed cheap quality. I am probably looking to get a linksys router with 54Mbps. What do you guys recommend?

I used to like the LinkSys products, but am now favoring the NetGear one's over them. I'm also looking into the Buffalo products.

I would recommend a netgear rangemax

I have decided I am still going to try to fix my current router. I have a dsl modem which is connected to my wbr-1310 router. Whenever I try to download applications off of the internet my download speed is comparable to a dial-up connection, where I average between 5-15 KB/s. When I use my desktop, connected straight to the modem with no router, I get my normal download speeds. I have tried bringing my laptop closer to the router (within inches) but I still experience slow download speeds. I have already searched this problem up numerous times on google and I have read that the best remedy for WBR-1310's is to reset them. However, I discovered that when using p2p programs, I usually get the high downloads speeds. My problem may lie within my browser but the connection is slow for both Firefox and IE. I even tried K-meleon browser but that was successful either. Sometimes repairing the connection, via the wireless connection icon taskbar, gets the connection to work. In that same icon I always have the max 54Mpbs connection. Also my connection to the internet sometimes just spontaneously stops and disconnects. However, I can still connect to p2p programs. Sometimes I have to turn the router off then on to make the internet connection work. By the way, thanks for the suggestions. Any suggestions?

The Netgear routers look good from what I have searched so I will check them out the next time I visit my local Bestbuy.

This could be interferance from other wireless devices in your area. Can you see any other wireless routers when you do a search. If so try changing the default channel your wireless works on and see if that makes a differance.

I use the NetGear WGR-614 at the wife's office and at home without any problems.

I do notice that my download speeds are slower when using the wireless than when using the cable. Try connecting with a cable and see if this remedies the problem. If so, then it's the wireless settings that need adjusting.
