I have the SMC Barricade Router, and I'm extremely pleased with it. It's probably what most would call "second best" to a Linksys, but there's only 1 difference I can find, and it's probably not even noticeable to most. Well worth the savings in $ for you.
LG CDRW's are as good as any, minus the "burnproof" option.
I've got an 8x4x32 that has been working steadily for over 2 years with no problems, and the newer faster ones seem as good.
I've also had no trouble using any software with it. It seems that it will burn with any writing program around, including the built in XP junk.
