Can you recommend a suitable router for our network?

We have a small network - wired not wireless, though we'd like to use wireless too - linking the net, half a dozen PCs, our server and a couple of printers. The existing router, which is connected to a standard domestic broadband/telephone line, is dying, or at least it's not very well. We'd like to replace it.

Can you give any guidance as to the easiest type/brand to set up and what specifications we should look for. We seem to be able to get basic kit for about £30, but could spend a lot more, is this justified? Many thanks
