Given the hardware you are using, that is about normal. Upgrading will certainly make this better/faster. It is only the searching that is a problem in most cases, as the router is not likely to have a problem looking up the best path. So, I guess you could call this a "cosmetic" problem (only when you want to look). More CPU=faster in this case, but only faster for you. -- ******************************************************************** * Butch Evans * Professional Network Consultation* * http://www.butchevans.com/ * Network Engineering * * http://store.wispgear.net/ * Wired or Wireless Networks * * http://blog.butchevans.com/ * ImageStream, Mikrotik and MORE! * ******************************************************************** -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
