We use AirGateway-LRs now for most homes and AirRouter HP’s when we need more range. Just ran into some inventory issues with the LR’s but they have been better than the AirRouters which we stopped using.

Yeah....really the only "feature" I want for a router that I would sell or provide to an end user is that you don't have to reboot it all the time. I can't bring myself to get excited about any of the other stuff that they allegedly do.

It explains a lot, many of these consumer routers identify as paperwights, and who are we to tell these routers that they cant be paperweights.

So I'm with you, pretty much every consumer grade router is trash now.

I used to recommend Linksys/Cisco, but since the Belkin buyout quality seems to be going down. They jink with teh firewall and I can't block specific outgoing traffic, can't remote admin anymore, etc... -- If you only see yourself as part of the team but you don't see your team as part of yourself you have already failed as part of the team.
