Recommend me a good wireless router ?

Looking for a router that will work well with 10 plus devices connected to it. Will be using probably 3 of the devices at a time for gaming. Price is not a problem

    I personally sell routers and I hear feedback from customers all the time.

    A lot of people come in to get routers for their businesses which run many devices per router. I also get customers that get routers for gaming. I would recommend either the Linksys E1500 or the Linksys E2500.

    Any high street/major store brand name router (even a cheaper not brand name as it still has to meet the same federal standard) should be fine.

    You are unlikely to be communicating much between devices and more likely to be communicating from each device to the internet, so your ISP connection is more important.

    Ensure your devices all use at least 802.11g (up to 54Mbps), as the router will revert to the wireless speed of the slowest device for all communication.

    I always try and go for routers by Cisco (Linksys) or Netgear these seem pretty decent routers.

    If your going to use them through wi-fi make sure you get 802.11N not G or B and that the cards inside your PC's are also 802.11N as this will give the best possible speed over wireless, but for the ultimate speed go wired, wired is always a lot faster and a lot less prone to disconnections and issues than wireless.

    Everyone who said Linksys (Cisco) is right. Netgear is #2 i'd say, and dont waste your time with anything else. Buy a good one = probably most expensive. But you'll save in the long run cause it wont die since it's not crap.
