What is a good WIFI router?

[THEFERMANATOR]

I have been having nothing but problems with my wireless router from our cable company, and am looking for a good router that won't break the bank. We have 35MB internet service at home now, and if I set there modem to default settings I get brief spikes to 38MB or so, and then nothing, back up, and then nothing again. If I disable the WMM in it, I got 35MB of speed from it for the 1st hour, and have been getting no higher than 22MB from it since. The speed coming from the modem drops the longer I try to connect to it, and will eventually drop down to 1-3MB if I'm lucky. So it looks like the modem is kicking me off because I can watch the speed of it drop from 54MB in the status window down to 11 when I am having issues. What is wierd it only does this on my 2 windows based laptops, and our VIZIO TV. My phone and my wifes apple based products maintain roughly a 35MB connection speed. I had this problem with the last modem we had from them on our 15MB service, and found some settings in it that fixxed it, but those settings don't work on this new router. SO I'm throwing in the towel, and going to get my own wireless router to use so hopefully I can hopefully get the speeds I'm paying for.
