Need a new Gateway

No, not the computer brand... I need a new Gateway, the ones my ISP Sends out (Westell Versalink 327s) are CRAP! They drop my connection all the time, and the first one I think burned up.... Do you guys know of any good gateways I can get? I'd love to get a linksys but I can't seem to figure out what to get. As long as it has wireless use as well I can live with it!
Cheers, Gunny (Sick of dropped connections)
EDIT: A gateway is a Router/Modem combo, and I have DSL just so you don't throw me at a cable one!

this would be the cheapest probably (ISP gives em to yah) Dropped my connection 3 times in a row to day, shortest span? 39 minutes..... Bah.... I reset it and it seems fine now (hadn't been reset in well over a year) I can open the ports on this thing blindfolded..... so I think I am good.... however I think its time for something a little more reliable!
Cheers, Gunny

Are you using wireless? In my experience wireless is unreliable and Westell Versalink 327 looks pretty cheap.

it has wireless on it, I have the Wireless G under my comp in a box stored (Was for the downstairs PC but no longer in use) I have it wired if thats what you want to know..... I need a new one, and I am trying to get something like it (a router modem combo) Because the modems Verizon uses are also westell (Not the best of things either) but I want a non westell something combo so I can have a nice connection!
