Need Router Recommendation

Hey all,

I currently use Belkin's Wireless G Router and it is acting a little quirky. I think I'm trying to do too much with it. It is having to support my HP Media Smart Server, two wired CPUs (desktop and media pc), laptop (wireless connection), Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 (both wired, with a switch). I don't know too much about routers. Does that seem like too much?

Anyway, I want to buy a new router and I want one that can support everything I've got going on. Does anybody have a similar set up? Or, can you recommend a great router?

(Re: Quirky. Every time I have a connection issue, I always isolate it to the router.)

Thanks,

-B

I like the Linksys WRT54GL. It's been recommended by others here as well.
