If you want ease of use with a Mac, then the AirPort Express, Airport Extreme, or the soon to be released Apple Time Capsule are your choices. Set up and configuration are straightforward. However, you will pay a premium when compared to other routers.
I haven't had any problems with my AirPort Extreme and AirPort Express. If I had to buy one right now I'd buy Time Capsule, of course. There's no question about it.
Howdy Folks: Cheers ya for the replies : All of these are Wireless - i prefer to stay wired - will try and muddle thru with the BEFSR41 v2 I have now - they still make it - may not be as easy as the Airports from Apple - though I will say I am less impressed with Apple these days Cheers:
