I run ADSL at home. I used to use a all in one gateway, but I had issues, so I bought a DSL modem and a router only.
Now, I have further split my network out into the following: DSL Modem <============= WRT54GL (Running Tomato for Routing)<============ASUS RTN-56U acting as an Access Point only. Right now, the WRT54GL is dishing out the DHCP stuff and doing the QOS and what not. I haven't really had any problems, but beofre introducing the WRT54GL, I had just the ASUS RTN-56U and things were fine also. But I have noticed a bit more improvement in congested situations (i.e. lots of people torrenting, youtube and browsing) due to the superior QOS in Tomato. So my question is: Is there tangible merit in the above method? Or should I scrap the WRT54GL and keep just the ASUS RTN-56U? Thanks as always for the help. -- Best Regards, Zulfiqar Naushad
