What is the best kind of router for running about 10 computers, 4 smart phones, and xbox live at the same time?

I know, it sounds like a lot, but we have a big house hold. We constantly have friends over and everyone in the family has a computer. Friends bring laptops, smart phones and connect to the router. We often have IP conflicts and connection problems. Is there a router that would make this stuff happen less?|||Any Moderately priced Router should do the Trick. What you should do is take a more proactive approach to managing your network. Start off By assigning all of the permanent devices in your house Static Ip Addresses If you have a laptop that you commonly use on other peoples networks then don't set a static Ip address for that device. Second Try to Clean up the air way's by connecting devices like desk tops or your xbox directly to your Router Via Cat5. Those devices should see a noticeable performance gain as well regarding network Traffic and By Having Fewer devices using the Wifi you will free up Bandwidth for your other Wireless devices.
