My experience parallels Jason's and whydidnt's exactly. I started off with the same Linksys, and soon found it was incompatible with "everything", including the Linksys "N" NICs. And, as Jason noted, I couldn't get it to work locked in "G" mode either.

I did some research, went back to the store, ignored the sales staff, and bought the D-Link Xtreme N Gigabit router. What a dream compared to the Linksys. Absolutely flawless performance with every brand and speed wireless NIC in the house, and that included a multitude of Cisco, Linksys, and Netgear models.

I always used to think D-Link was the bottom of the barrel. Then, a few years ago, my Company, which normally ONLY uses Cisco products, used D-Link routers and switches in our installations in Iraq (they were the only ones we could get quickly in Abu Dabi). I found that D-Link had been improving their products over the years, and all of them were very reliable and high performance.
