Wireless Router Recommendation?

Hi all, first post.

I've decided my Virgin Broadband is a bit underused (surfing, email, the odd download) and I want to make better use of it. So getting a Squeezebox music streamer that can use my Broadband connection to stream Internet radio, podcasts and the like directly to my hifi in the livingroom. Also further down the line I will pick up a video streamer for video.

SO...

I'm looking for a recommended wireless router that will do the job for me.
From another forum I've been told the Linksys WRT54GL works very well, especially with the Open Source "tomato" firmware.

Anyone else got this one or suggest anything better?

Thanks very much.
(now all I have to do is klearn about networking and im fine!)

WRT54GL + Tomato is the way to go mate.
