You on cable or ADSL?

I have a belkin 54mbps wireless router.
It has an ADSL modem built in as I'm on BT.

http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=179477

It has four wired ports and is easy to set up.

You can get a 108mbps versions or higher now depending on your needs. I would recommend any of the leading brands, linksys, netgear etc..

Can get PCI, PCIAMA, USB adapters to fit your other PCs, laptops should you wish.

Any good branded make should be fine Belkin, Linksys, USR etc

Looking around the £80+ mark for a decent one try avoid the cheap 50 quidish ones like the BT Voyager as they tend to be a bit crap

Im really pleased with that linksys one i got off ebuyer! Not tested the wireless function yet but as a router its 100x better than my old netgear one. Port forwarding is a piece of piss, as was setup. I have 5 bittorrent files going at the moment simultaneously at over 200kB/s, and the internet is still working (noticeably slower, but working ok - my old netgear router was useless in this situation, not even msn would connect sometimes if i had too many torrents going).
Anyway, recommended
