There are only two products I can recommend for entry level: The Cisco WRVS4400N, and the Apple AirPorts. Everything else I've ever tried has to be "reset" constantly, and IMO that's unacceptable. A router should NEVER have to be reset unless you are pushing a firmware update.

You can save money and buy a $50 router, but have fun getting pissed off at having to reset it at least once a week.

If you buy a good router it will last forever and never have to be reset. And if you ever want a new one, you can sell the old one. Buy a $200 Cisco route today, and you'll never have a problem with it and be able to sell it for $120 in 3-years. Buy a $50 crap-box and you'll end up having to buy two of them in three years and they'll both end up being worthless.

If $200 is too much to spend on a router, consider getting an Apple AirPort express for $99. I know, you'll have an evil Apple product in your house. It's okay, you can hide it away and you don't have to tell anyone.
