[Elecraft] Wireless Router Recommendations

Hmmm.. I have a linksys BEFW11S4 802.11b (2.4 GHz) four-port + wireless
router that has been sitting as close as two feet from my K2 with no
problems that I noticed. I don't listen to 700 kHz that often though so I
grabbed my portable BCB receiver and sure 'nuf, there's broadband  hash
about 700 kHz but only within a foot or two of the router. Six feet away and
I can't hear a thing! 

These digital things are disasters waiting to happen to any analog gear
within range, as far as I'm concerned. They're like a girl friend I had in
college. Having her around offered some astounding benefits but they came
with some very significant disadvantages too...

I want to know too.

I have a Linksys WRT54G which is about three years old. It produces so much
noise that I can't even listen to the local BCB station on 700KHz.

I thought that the 12V switching PS was responsible, but when I ran it off a
linear supply, the condition was unchanged. 

I went back to using an old Netgear 11 Mb/s router, but now need a new one,
and an access point for full house coverage.
