Re: Is it time to retire my Linksys WRT54GX2?

Do both report excellent signal strength? Have you tried different channels? Are you using encryption? What type? What do the adapter statistics look like - are you getting re-transmits, for example?

Where I'm headed, in case it wasn't obvious, is that blindly swapping out the router without doing a little troubleshooting to determine the root cause isn't likely to get you very far (although I'm sure the company who makes the new router would appreciate it).

Give this FAQ a look for some other ideas:
