New Router required for Wired PS3 and N1 for laptop

Could someone please suggest some routers that would be an ideal replacement for my old linksys wrt54g which is struggling and dropping out very frequently!

I am currently using the PS3 over a wired connection, and am happy to continue to do so to acheive optimum performance.

However, it would be nice to upgrade to wireless n standard, as i believe this would offer some benefits to my macbook pro which supports this.

In addition to that, i would like to have control of my bandwidth to ensure gaming performance remains good when downloading torrents etc.

Any help much appreciated, thanks.

As far as I know, the PS3 isn't n standard so will drag your network speed down to G speeds anyway...
