Are you doing NAT? If not, static IPs will be a pain in your butt when it's 
time to move to a new IP block. I'm running DHCP, but handing out specific IPs 
based on their PC's (router's) MAC. I can change them at will w/o needing to 
make a truck roll or talk someone through the process over the phone.

I don't remember the particulars about the Belkin. Just didn't care for it too 
much. I do like the DLinks, and when I bought them, the clerk printed out a 
rebate for each unit. Dunno if I'll actually get them. I'm sure DLink has my 
address memorized by now. I run rebates quite a lot.

Did you see the Siemens router on TigerDirect?

It's a single-port so you'll still need a hub or a switch. But the price is 
hard to beat. I've got 3 of them and they work fine for me.
