What do you think of these routers?

    Hi,
    I recently bought a Linksys WRT610N. It broke after a few weeks and I returned it for a replacement. The new one was not faulty but I really wasn't happy with the range (2.4 ghz was ok but 5 very poor) so I returned it too.

    I gave up on getting a Dual band router and got a Belkin N300+ which has a good range but it is rather difficult to configure manually as the config page stops working after a few resets.

    At first it is quite easy to configure but after that the admin page becomes inaccessible for some reason (I only configured wireless security setting BTW). At first I thought that its IP had been reassigned but it has not. I had a similar problem on the linksys but fixed it with a firmware update. This did not work for the Belkin.


    It also doesn't show up as a network device in the windows network view which is a pain.



    Anyone know how I would go about fixing this?
    Thanks
