Ok here is the scoop. We have Brighthouse as our ISP & the wife & I recently upgraded to their 90mbs service. We used to have 30mbs so yes we really notice the difference. Her & I both have hardwired desktops & she has a Kindle & a ipad & I have a netbook plus both our phones are the wireless items we use.

I currently use an old D-Link DIR-655 router that I bought in Dec of 08 & it's showing it's age. We get in the lower 90's on speedtest with our desktops but our wireless is just over 20mbs. I want to upgrade to something Faster/Newer in the wireless area. I'm no geek so it has to be petty painless & easy as hell to setup.

I'd be willing to spend $120-130 or so on something. What do you guys suggest?
My current router has been a tank & trouble free as hell so I want something just as dependable.

I forgot to add that we stream movies from a Roku1 as well.

I'd say that an Antheros platform would be much nicer such as the TP-Link TL-WDR3600 or similar. That said, it wont magically remove interference.
