Have you been changing the firmware on them? The majority of the problem with consumer routers is the software is built 'fast and lose'. I find the WRT54G/GS units to work well once changed. Same for the 150/160N. The next largest issue is that they skimp on the hardware resources, the 310 has 32mb ram where most other units have 16 or even as little as 8. That just is not enough with out a well produced firmware.
