The 1900AC was a rolling disaster (although this article claims it's all sorted now, and a look at the OpenWRT documentation seems to concur): I'd definitely take this with a grain of salt and let someone else break the ground on it. Linksys wanted to regain the popularity they had with the WRT54G, but bungled both the initial release and the price point. Let's hope this is better. And I admit the price is better, the amount of memory is pretty huge and eSATA/USB3 are a nice addition. It's unlikely I'd be buying: I just purchased the previously mentioned TP-Link - which is available now and known to work (which I like better than "is promised to work," like the wrt1200ac). -- Giles http://www.gilesorr.com/ giles...@gmail.com --- Talk Mailing List talk@gtalug.org http://gtalug.org/mailman/listinfo/talk
