- ceejayoz 10y agoBecause people still buy it? Same reason a TI-83 calculator still costs a hundred bucks.
- cvwright 10y agoThe model's reputation for reliability probably plays a big role here. Read the reviews of almost any other modern wifi router, and you'll see lots of complaints about even expensive models frying themselves in the first year.
- bnolsen 10y agoI still keep old wrt54g's around for backup duty. But I really do want a router that's actively kept up to date. Last year i bought a xiaomi mini miwifi (less than 20usd at the time). With openwrt it ran mostly okay but the AC was occasionally locking up requiring a reboot. Thankfully with 15.03.1 that now seems to be fixed. Ordered another one of these for my parents who were having serious problems with netgear router that I hope to get soon. Not having gigabit is a bummer on these but they do well for low speed residential service and they are super cheap!
