Hey.
Here's just a few routers that could suit your needs:

I especially like the SMC Barricade Broadband Router 4P 10/100 switches, very cheap, but packed full of features.

Routers I like :
Dlink
SpeedStream

Routers that I have no problem with :
Belkin
Netgear

Routers that are evil and break :
Linksys

I've never had trouble with my linksys. Never. One of my friends has a dlink, and he hates it. I, personally, run my linksys as a switch/AP and run a smoothwall.

[Zatrix]

i have no clue what a smooth wall is.... or what a switch is..

basically i just want one that can let me connect another comp to the internet. i dont care about the firewall because ill still be using zone alarm. unless someone could get me a faq on how to use smooth wall and tell me what a switch is....

[SavageBasher]

If you get a router, then most likely you won't need zonealarm.

Whatever you do, DON'T bet the Linksys Befsr41 v3. It has aim connectivity problems. When more than one person are on aim at a time, usually every 2-30 minutes, all will get kicked off and the only way to reconnect to aim is to go into the router, and resave the settings - not changing anything or reentering the ports, just saving... I hate it.
