Fine, would you mind to share your settings? How about usability? I am
looking to use this as a gateway which changes uplink WLAN providers
often (on my boat :-)

I have been able to look at the Buffalo product, it has quite a nice

DD-WRT we should be able to provide something similar but more flexible.
