Router Recommendations

    So I'm looking for a new Router.

    I've had the Netgear DGN2200 for a long while now but the wireless is starting the act up despite resets and so on. It's lasted a good while though so I'm not too bothered by that.

    I'm looking around but not sure what to pick up. I need a router with great wireless performance since the house has a few dozen different wireless devices. At least 4 iPods, 4 or 5 phones, 3 Xboxs, 2 PS3s, Laptops, a few custom PCs, TVs, an iPad and so on.

    Preferably Dual Band too. Price isn't much of an issue either.

    Thanks.

    I got an Apple Airport Extreme, but pricey, but super simple to setup and it just works. Simultaneous dual band. Having an airport express at the other side of the house to extend the network helps too. Airplay audio is perfect. Not sure if you can get the consoles all into DMZ, but port forwarding should be easy enough.

    I'll definitely look into it. Any other suggestions?

    I think I'll avoid Netgears latest line ups. The DGN3700 has a load of complaints against it from bad range to dropping the wireless altogether. And some dodgy firmware. I know I can't fully update my DGN2200 to its latest firmware due to an issue where all 360s will have moderate NAT with no way to change it.
