Concerning Linksys routers:
I heard Linksys was good, and got a home router of theirs. It routinely caused EXTREME latency, I'm talking up to 10 full seconds. I got two other home routers while trying to isolate the problem, and both of them were bunk too, I eventually found out. Having 3 bad routers really confused me while I was trying to isolate the problem, because everything pointed to the router being bad, but I couldn't believe 3 of them were bad. They were.
Later I heard Linksys used to be good when they were doing equipment for businesses, but screwed up big time when they went to the home router market. I don't know if they've gotten their act together yet or not, but I've learned you damn well better check reviews on the brand/model you want to get.
