Gigabit ethernet in the home is actually a reality.... and having a Gigabit LAN hit a 11Mb/s (half-duplex!) 802.11b wireless means that in many homes, we actually need a box that satisfies both. My vote would be to double the price from $80 to $250, and set that as the new base for cerowrt work. If it can't forward more than 2-3 GbE links, that is just fine. I don't expect 24-ports of GbE. (I was expecting that cisco switch to do that... sadly no lost packets on a $100 unmanaged FE switch...) -- ] Never tell me the odds! | ipv6 mesh networks [ ] Michael Richardson, Sandelman Software Works | network architect [ ] mcr@sandelman.ca http://www.sandelman.ca/ | ruby on rails [
