So i'm sitting here next to my elderly WRT54G, and its starting to become slow and freezes almost every week atleast once. So its time to get a nice replacement. I'm looking for something between $15-30 to get a bit more speed. Most of the problems currently is because the ram is always full, so atleast 16 or 32MB would be nice.

Oh, and please check if its possible to ship it to The Netherlands if buying from amazone.co.uk.

Thanks a lot!

I'm not especially familiar with shipping to NL, but if eBay is an option, the d-link dir-862l can be found pretty cheap on there. I just got a used one in good shape for <$20. It has a 720mhz processor and 128mb ram. It also gets some extra features, as it has 16mb flash. If that isn't an option, I'd recommend increasing your budget slightly. A router isn't something people typically buy often, and the budget devices typically have quite a few compromises.

For ~$45, I'm a big fan of the TP-Link tl-wr1043nd v2. Its n450, has a 720mhz processor, 64mb ram, 8mb flash, and a usb2 port.

Outside of that, take a look at the supported devices list, as it'll tell processor speed, ram, and flash for any supported device. I always recommend 8mb as a minimum for flash, as a lot of features get cut out on 4mb builds.
