I'd lean towards the Microsoft one. I have a Belkin 802.11b router/AP and when my buddy and I try to play a game (or download) anything simultaneously, we get timeouts like crazy. Bah, you have a choice

The only thing I don't loke about the MS one is that you have to install their software if you want to change the setup default. You can't jsut access it with an ip address like most routers.
