I choose D-Link because I havn't had any problems with it and I've had lots with Linksys.

I like Linksys hardware, but I've been on support with them a couple of times after my routers firmware got erased. I've never used D-Link so I wouldnt know. Avoid the BEFSR41 router.

I've never used D-Link, but I love my Linksys WRT54g.  Modified firmware = good.

The linksys WRT54G runs linux when it leaves the factory, and you can simply alter the distro that it is running by uploading your own firmware to the unit. Linksys has kindly turned a blind eye to people modifying their devices because they allow Linksys to sell more units. The NSLU2 is antother good example of a Linksys device being easy to modify.

Yeah, so I vote linksys.
