Folks,

Does anyone have recommendations for an AP/router/print server
(AP/R/P) they like, which is currently available?

At home, I've been happy with an SMC WBR7004 for the past couple
of years.  I especially like the SMC's parallel printer port, which
allows me to print to my old, bullet-proof QMS 825 printer from my
Mac without powering up a desktop computer.

However, the SMC is an old unit limited to 40-bit WEP, and I'd
eventually like to upgrade.  The issue is that I don't see much in
the way of AP/R/P combos anymore, and I'd like to avoid adding a
dedicated print server gizmo if possible.

I've tried the Siemens 2624 AP/R/P box, but so far it has exhibited
inconsistent latency from one moment to the next.  SSH sessions
sometimes have imperceptible delay, but it's frequently close to a
second, whether I'm using wireless or wired access.  Pumping MTR
traffic helps, apparently overcoming some packet-bunching phenomenon.

Thanks,
