Subject: Re: OT - Looking for Wireless Router Recommendtion
I am running a Netgear WNDR3700 and really liking it. it has USB HDD
support for network file access (https, ftp, smb) and it will do Guest
Wireless networks on both the 2.4 and 5ghz bands.

If you manage to get a version other than 4 they are ddwrt compatible.

A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from
rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
