Newegg has the refurbished D-Link DIR-655 Xtreme N Gigabit Router for $30 - $7 off at final checkout = $23 with free shipping. Delivers up to 14x faster speeds and 6x farther range than 802.11g, with a 4-port 10/100/1000 Gigabit switch that connects Gigabit wired devices.
A ton of negative reviews on newegg on this refurbished router. I have a non-refurbished unit myself when I bought it at full price. It had been good for few months and turned bad, drop signal frequently. QoS is a joke, once this device is downloading, all other devices cannot stream video (youtube for an example) at all. Thing that annoy me the most is the "Access Control", whenever it turned on I cannot connect to the wireless (even without any configuration yet). Also, the "website filter" is the most lime feature I ever used. They are limit the websites that you can block since there are countless xxx sites out there. Every change on your router required a reboot. I don't know what D-link is thinking?

I had this same router for over 6 years and paid over $100 and never had any issues. At $23 it's a deal.
ditto #2
FYI, "$7 off at final checkout" did not work for me.
