What's the consensus on a recommended, non apple brand (don't ask), 11.g
Wireless ASDL hub/router?
I've shied away from NetGear after 3 switches/hubs failed on me but some people
seem to think they are the bees knees value wise
Linksys WAG54G
Good - VPN support, upgrading firmware doesn't erase configs, heaps of
features
Bad - up until a month or so ago, still shipped with very buggy
firmware(still might, haven't been bothered with them for a while).
Firmware obtained from Linksys wasn't much better. Mainly problems with
port mapping. Also, there are some nasty issues when using the VPN to
connect to non-linksys routers. (ie cisco 827/837 and unix boxen)
My opinion - awesome router once the firmware issues are fixed
-------------------------------
Dlink DSLG-604T
Good - removable aerial, ADSL2 firmware upgradable
Bad - no vpn support, brand new so possibility of some firmware issues.
My opinion - its been sitting on my desk for a while, but I haven't
played with it much, but seems pretty much identical to the DSL-504G
which is a good little router.
(note) - the 504G doesnt support upnp, so if its important to you, check
to see if the 604T does.
