Linksys Router

I am having some problems with my Linksys BEFSR41 4 port router. It appears to have died this morning. I have been able to connect my DSL line directly to my Mac and it is working fine. When connected through the Linksys, I cannot connect connect to the web. It worked fine up until last night. Today, no go.
What are the better Mac friendly routers out there? I have two machines in my setup, the Mac and a Compaq Presario running Windows XP Home. I mainly use the Compaq to access my Stamps.com account as I was having trouble with VPC 6.xx. I also use it for some minor dvd replicating. I rarely go on the net with it, using it mainly for my Stamps.com
a/c.
Any recommendations would be appreciated.:(
 
I have this Links Router, only an 8 port. If it went bad, I would replace it with the same one. Very good router.

I would reset the router and setup again before buying a new one.

I spent about 2 hours doing that. I even got the lights flashing - but no go on the internet. Something I should have mentioned - my ISP (Bellsouth) did some maintenance/upgrades and required me to add "@bellsouth.net" to my user name. I did that this morning and that is when I started to have problems.
I will continue to see if I can get it working before I do buy a new router.:cool:
