New Router - Netgear DGN2000 Or Other?

Hi all, quick question for you. I currently have a Netgear DGN834PN which is hard wired to my PS3, because the wireless PS3 controllers kill the wifi signal when switched on. Generally, this is fine, but when the PS3 is on, I can't use any other wifi gear (laptops, etc) because of the conflict between the DG834PN & anything Bluetooth (i.e. the PS3's controllers). This is a known issue between the DG834PN & Bluetooth signals and isn't limited to just the PS3.

I'm thinking of doing a router upgrade, so was considering a Netgear DGN2000. I realise the PS3 will never utilise the N wifi speed, but that's not the reason for purchase. I really just want a new router that will work reliably and not lose it's wifi signal everytime I use the PS3 or anything else with Bluetooth!

Does anyone have any experience of this router with a PS3? I'm looking for feedback on it's stability, compatability with the PSN and whether the wifi works when the PS3 is on...

Thanks!
