Re: Router Suggestions

Thanks Jim - have no real need for VPN - just a nice-to-have - so lack of industrial strength is not a problem.

I concur with the Asus products. The VPN is workable but not industrial
strength so keep that in mind.

I use them (and this one specifically) in small office environments too.

Thanks Richard - looking hard at a number of ASUS models - they certainly
seem to be the ones who have got it right at the moment. I've been a fan of
Netgear for many years (and before that Cisco) but both seem to have gone
down badly in recent years.

Asus RT-AC66R. Got it at best buy. Probably newer models now.

Awesome range and a VPN option so you can connect to any home servers

with the built-in VPN.

Been using a Netgear WNDR3800 for some time now and love the
interface. Sadly it has developed a problem with dropping connections
and since it is Susan that keeps being dropped I need to fix it <grin>

Anybody got any suggestions for a solid replacement? Reviews seem to be

all over the place - a result I guess of the consumer being the quality
control department!

It would be nice if it had the ability to log traffic volume per

connection (WNDR3800 only has it in total) as I have been having issues with
one system using a lot of bandwidth - but can?t find out which one.
