The LinkSys has many other problems that 38 revisions of flash rom still 
fail to address. As for "know what your doing", cut the folks some 
slack. If the router actually DID what the manual says its supposed to 
do in the first place without having to resort to constant flash rom 
updates and "beta" versions to fix what should have worked in the first 
place, none of these postings would even be here.

For the Asante unit, anyone who knows routers, knows that there are 
several routers that use a slight variation of the same software and 
fixing them "if you screw up" is a simple matter. Sending them back 
doesn't have to be the case at all.

While LinkSys is without a doubt the most ecomonical router on the 
market and probably meets most users requirements right out of the box, 
if you need something "extra" it's not going to provide it. It is a nice 
product but has simply taken too long to reach this point.
