> I got a variety of responses including that I should install the open source dd-wrt firmware... No, no, a hundred times no... Author didn't want to try a new OS on his device, and instead opted to spend an additional 2.1k on enterprise level devices. While this did 'fix' it, he wasn't really innovative or creative. Just was willing to spend more money. A similar example might be, "How I fixed my car" - Bought a new one.

I fully agree with your take on this being an exercise in throwing money at a problem until it goes away. He probably didn't even need to go as far as diving headfirst into the world of fussy custom firmware to solve this issue either, Asus hardware comparable to his Linksys equipment is recommended so often that I can't imagine he researched the topic before making his buying decision.
