I say Linksys for the win too. They are a division of Cisco which as you may or may not know makes probably 80%, if not more, of the routers that pass internet traffic.
In addition, the linksys can be hacked to add a TON of functionality, though it appears they have expanded the router list that can be hacked to include D-Link.

I know when I hacked my Lynksis it went from being a simple home network router to have having a lot of the features of the network routers Ive worked on at work before. Its not for the faint of heart though cause you can brick it if you arent careful.
