Plenty.

Click on the search menu item and stick in the following words: NTL wireless router

Should pull up plenty of opinions and comments. FWIW I use a Netgear FM114P (I think ) and it works fine.

Could alsp try the Linksys range of DSL routers (they are made by Cisco)

Got a WRT54G - 4 wired and wireless connections as well.

Very easy to set u xp machines etc. Slightly harder on my mchine still running NT4

Using the Belkin wifi router + linksys PCI cards - works well.
But would recommend the Netgear router instead - just waiting for the cat to completely chew through the power cable to the belkin before buying the netgear
