Although we are having GREAT results with the wndr3700v2 on both the bismark
and iscwrt projects, word is that the Buffalo WZR-HP-G301NH is the same
hardware, and comes with 32MB flash/64MB ram, and costs less than 70 dollars
from newegg.
I personally happen to be a huge fan of 5.x ghz technology (2.4 ghz is
hopelessly polluted) but for those out there that don't need 5.Xghz, and
want to save on costs (the wndr3700v2 is 139 dollars)...
AND wants to play with one of these buffalo routers, I'm willing to start
doing builds for it...

The SamKnows guys also pointed us to this router as a possibility.
Should we get a few to play with here during your visit?

Well, more important to me right now is knowing how many wndr3700v2 routers
we can QA *right now*, and when the next 10 are arriving.
And seriously, everywhere I've been in the 3rd world, 2.4 ghz is HOPELESSly
polluted.
So the wndr3700v2 remains the best in breed for us.
But: sure, firing up a build for the buffalo and testing that in parallel
won't take much time, and I LOVE having multiple vendors for stuff that
could be obsoleted at any second. Netgear's CTO has never got back to me on
assuring supply....
And any time you can cut the BOM in half, is a good time.

WZR-HP-G300NH appears to be a slightly earlier version of this model.
IF we're going to try doing a build and testing against another breed of
router, I'd love it if two could be here by wednesday.... or drop the idea
entirely for capetown.
Go/no go decision/purchase please?
They are readily available from newegg and elsewhere, via google search....

I can get two by Wednesday (amazon 2-day), or tomorrow for $4 extra. Is this the one?

Two Buffaloes are stampeding towards Atlanta, due to arrive in midtown Wednesday.
