Good Routers

I'm considering buying a router and I would like one that causes the minimum of problems when I play Supreme Commander.
Can anyone recommend a router that has things like low delay and is easy and reliable to set up and control as regards having the right ports open to make Supreme Commander work properly.
Thanks|||All routers have their own quirks and foibles.
The only thing I would suggest is that you do NOT buy Belkin.
Thomson routers are not really for the retails market. They are bought primarily by ISP's and are locked down to the ISP's requirements.
However they are really great routers with features that far exceed their price, and if you know what you are doing they work with supcom just great.
Netgear and Dlink are pretty decent retail consumer devices. I think you are probably best going with netgear though. They are easy to set up and theres plenty of documentation online.
Other considerations though are, where are you located, who is your ISP, what DSLAM chipsets are they using? (if you know).|||The TP-Link TL-WR1043ND is pretty "in" right now. It also support DD-WRT and possibly other alternative linux firmwares.
The Linksys E1000, E2000 and E3000 are also pretty good. The E2000 and E3000 are pretty pricey though.|||shoot2kill|||yeah, belkin suck the wang. i would recommend netgear.
