help buying a DSL router

Can anyone give me some guidance on a brand of router that is relatively cheap and easy to setup. i will be connecting two pc's to the network and tired of using a proxy server.

Thanks for the info.

By the way I want it to be wired not wireless

I have a simple D-Link, which was a decent price, and has never given me any issues.. 100% reliable, and a great buy in my opinion!

Linksys also makes cheap and easy-to-use routers. I have three and they all work great.

I'm using a Linksys wired router. Fairly easy to set up, and relitivly cheap!

Check out www.spoofee.com. They currently have a deal on the front page for a D-Link one from CompUSA for $10 AMIR

The D-Link works pretty well. I just picked one up yesterday. I also have a Siemens Speedstream I bought a couple months ago. Not bad either.

The last two routers I've used (including the one I am using currently) have both been D-Links. They are reliable and were really cheap. One thing though, don't use a "print server," as suggested in the DI-704P. (Or any print server for that matter). They are slower than snails. I merely took my printer off of the router and put it back on my PC and shared it. MUCH faster.
