I've been happy with my Netgear WGR614L. It covers the whole house with
ease, including the yard (tho I do have it in a pretty central location both
horizontal and vertical). Worked right out of the box (but I do suggest
setting the passwords for both WiFi and administrative access). ISTR I paid
about $50 @ the local Best Buy, but Amazon has it for under $30.
Only trouble I've had is that it used to require rebooting every month or
two. But putting one edge up on something else (for improved air
circulation) seems to have solved that.
