Yeah, fair call -- if I knew the router would be 100% reliable with the built-in software, great. I'll look into the WRT-150N. However, I'm looking into OpenWrt

Yeah, fair call -- if I knew the router would be 100% reliable with the built-in software, great. I'll look into the WRT-150N. However, I'm looking into OpenWrt/etc because I've had such a bad run with the build-in firmware on previous routers. I've never had a Linksys, admittedly.
- jpierce420 17y agoCisco has made a truckload of money from buying Linksys. The wireless routers are great for home use, and very cheap. They threw some NV-Ram and a MIPS processor in a box, used a free OS, routing engine and hardware code, and they sell the hell out of them. They are easily the most popular home wireless routers, you can find them at the likes of Best Buy, Office Depot, and hell I think I bought mine at Wal-Mart, lol! And mine has worked like a charm. Nifty admin web interface, with all kinds of features and setting to change and configure. Anything from security to connectivity to proxies. Just remember to change the default set passwords! :-) And as I said, you can use Open wrt and others just the same on the 150N, but have the substantial increase in hardware performance as well.
