By best do you mean the most feature rich & expensive, or do you mean the most feature rich for a certain price?

I say D-LINK

Cisco

Cisco. Model 827 or WAG54G if you want built in 802.11g

D-link...this one: http://www.d-link.co.za/dwl-g604t.html

 

[cAde]

Cisco 800 series , or even 1600 or 1700 with ADSL WIC

 

[ScrnScrm]

or even 1600 or 1700 with ADSL WIC

oh, dont we have a budget here? in that case, a 3825 with adsl wic, plus an E1 card and might as well through in ISDN backup (BRI Card) for just in case

 

[cAde]

[Kale]

Definitely the new BILLION 7402G. Check Jump.co.za or Digitalplanet.co.za

Netgear

I have just installed a Netgear DG834GTUK and am over the moon with it.

i think d-link is cool

 

[Nom Chompsky]

Yes, Mini-itch I think we have established that you think D-Link routers are cool - you don't need to state it again. Also, you sell D-Link routers so no-wonder you are promoting them.

I would say Mikrotik is right up there and the Ubiquiti stuff us great also.

Linksys came up with some good stuff a while back, but had some real schit routers also

Asus have some great routers, but are not cheap. Certainly one of the better ones out there!

Generally with a router you'd look at the chipset it is running followed by the firmware - pointless having great hardware and then the firmware is full of bugs or does not let you make full use of it.

The Broadcom and Lantiq chipsets seem to be the preferred ones, with the commercial stuff at least.
