I've pretty much given up on Linksys/Cisco home routers. I've been a network manager pretty much since the early days (token ring, RS-232, etc). I used to like the Linksys routers, but then started having lots of power supply issues with them. Then once Cisco stepped in and started putting their name on the Linksys, the quality seemed to drop.
For a long time I was pretty anti-DLINK because we went through a bunch of the DLINK hubs and routers that would just have a port go dead, but that seems to be a non-issue now. My current favorite for bang-for-the-buck is the Belkin routers. The AC1600 is what I've been buying for customers and have not had a single issue with any of them (more than 80 of them). And the range is really amazing considering these do not have external antennas. They are highly regarded in the gamer and hackers world because the CPU inside them is one of the fastest in a home router.
That said, it still would be good to connect via ethernet to the router you have and make sure there are no issues with the ISP. 100' CAT 5e or CAT6 ethernet cables are not that expensive.
