Lynksys Router Purchase Review

Because of some DSL issues out at my house, the service tech's decided to dedicate one phone line to my office for DSL eliminating all the filters from the phone jacks inside the house, also eliminating any DSL signal from anywhere else in the house. Not too long after their fix we decided to set two other computers up in the house (I have a large house). I am currently using the router as a switch and I was able to run CAT5 to the other computers through ceilings and walls to conceal the wires. I ended up bidding on two routers at the same time and getting them both. They don't go bad very often but I've got a back up if I need one, also if I want to add more computers, I can use the spare router as another switch. I am using the older one (the one in the picture) because it looks better next to my modem. The router was easy to set up, after I figured out that it had to have a different IP address than the modem and have had absolutly no problem with it so far. For the do-it-yourselfer home tech, remember: don't stack modems, routers and switches as they generate alot of heat. They need room to keep cool to preserve their life cycles. Linksys makes a good router. Since I have been around the technical side of computers and networking, I have never seen one go bad, and point of fact, I am not even sure if there is another brand ( I'm sure there is, I just haven't payed any attention to anything else).
