Well, in the past I would have recommended a Belkin ADSL Wireless Router. I have a 7630-4AUK model, which has been pretty good.
It has been left on pretty much continually for about a year, with only a few crashes. However, this weekend it has started to give me grief. It's rebooting several times a day. At first I thought this was all down to downloading bittorrents (legal ones!) with Azureus, as p2p software is notorious for knocking out routers. However, I am still seeing reboots with minimal internet activity. My ADSL download rate seems to be crawling along too. If I reboot the router, the internet connection seems fine for 10 mins, then goes sluggish again with quite a bit of packet loss. My ISP has looked into the line quality and say there's no evidence of any problem, and that everything points towards a sick router. I would say that before I got this problem it was pretty stable. The only issue I had with it was I could not get the remote admin web page to work. It seems like every wireless router manufacturer has problems. I've been looking around for a replacement, checking out forums, and there doesn't seem to be a complete winner in terms of stability and performance. A friend had a new Linksys router and couldn't get it to work with his Squeezebox. He replaced it with the same Belkin model as me, and it worked first time without any issues.
