I'm not an expert regarding routers but we have one here at the house and it works fantastic. Strong signal etc. Very happy. BTW... easy to install.

nice, thank you for the response. That's why I figured I would check here, never had sumthing that I couldn't get an answer for. Ima pick it up after work and give it a go. Figured sum1 around here would have worked with 1 or use 1

I have one too. Don't flash the firmware unless you really really have too. The 1.3x firmware is causing a lot of problems for some users and once you do you can't go back to the 1.2x firmware. I'm on 1.32na and its stable, but I had to flash it twice to get Shareport to work reliably. I have to say right now I am happy with it. It has a good signal and a good features.

that's good to know thanks, as long as it lets my PS3 connect and play games w/o really lagging bad when I have like 2-3 people on the internet, I'll be happy. My old Linksys WRT54GS used to do it fine but I guess after all the wear n tear, I think it just needs a replacement. I've done multiple hard resets and upgraded firmware when needed and at some points needed to unplug for about a min n replug and it would be good for a few days
