I'm using a DLink 713 router with a wireless and wired clients. Most of
my house is Linux, with one Windows PC on the network.
It's a nice router, with dmz, port forwarding and the usual stuff -
dhcp, web management, etc, etc. I've not tested the range, but it covers
inside the house just fine. I picked it up on sale at Best Buy for less
than a LinkSys.
Also, it does PPPoE out of the box, which was nice when I got my DSL,
and it handles a static IP just fine, which I upgraded my DSL to
yesterday *grin*.
So far, I'm happy with it. YMMV
