Recomend me a router
Discussion
Avoid the cheaper ones. I took a belkin ADSL router back because I thought it was broken and got a cheap netgear DGN1000 and that was just as bad. Went from a stable 5 megs to cutting out every 10 minutes the only way to solve it was to get the ISP to reduce the speed down to 1.5 megs until it was replaced. Mind you this is talktalk so who knows!
Try and tap your ISP up for a free one before buying.

Just seen this on ebay, http://www.ebay.co.uk/ctg/Linksys-WAG160N-300-Mbps... look any good? Does it matter it that it doesnt have the little aerial things?
Slightly over budget (well double actually) but I got a Netgear N900 about 6 months ago.
It's the 4th router I've had in the last 8 years and by far the best and easiest to use.
The interface is simple and easy to use, it set itself up and it's only been powered off a few times in the time I've had it when going away for a week or so. It's never needed rebooting or anything doing to it, it just does what it says on the tin. It is also DNLA ready so you can plug in up to two external hard drivers to the router and anything on the network can access them for media etc.
