this has caught my eye, says 10/100 WAN under specs. I wonder.

There's more than a few good firewall/routers with hackable linux firmwares from  few vendors, Linksys & Buffalo are two. They give you a lot more than simple content filtering.

None of the ones I've looked at have > 10Mb for the WAN connection which is going to be an issue soon with cable bandwidth creeping over 10Mb.

vpn router with some nice key word blocking ability built in but you may be right, recently set up a dlink for a customer and it had the ability to check itself for firmware updates. Router live update. :-)

fvs ? I take it the 318 is a router.... I can't reset my Netgear 314... well, I can turn it off and on but that doesn't do anything.

I was thinking the same thing but after doing some looking around I think routers have come a long way... better interfaces, better security, built in wireless, ... and companies like Belkin, Dlink, SMC offer lifetime warranties.... where as Netgear gives you a year. Besides, the last Netgear product I bought sucked = a Gb NIC. And, of course, they are very cheap. After rebates and sales I paid 50 bucks for my Netgear 314, which, four years ago was a great price. Now for a wireless with all the same features, and more the retail is going to be $52. Plus you get a modern up to date firewall .... I think my 314s last flash was June of 01 of course I don't want to do this unless I am sure this is the problem.
