[QUOTE="ClockworkWorld, post: 1171493, member: 182559"] Had some very bad luck with my last Linksys wireless router. Sadly I don't remember the model, but it would CONSTANTLY redirect us to random websites. For example, Google.com would send us to something called "weblogic" My wife uses Facebook, it constantly redirected her to either Moviefone, or Myspace, and the list continued. Sometimes it worked properly, and restarting it always corrected the problem for at least 15 minutes or so. But it always returned, and when it acted that way, it was IMPOSSIBLE to get the page you wanted to load. Turned out with that particular model and one other by Linksys, it was a very common problem. Replaced it with an Airport Extreme, and have not had so much as one issue with it. Great range, very reliable! I am sure there are other great ones out there, but can't go wrong with the Airport :) [/QUOTE]
