Speaking of network equipment, I just found out about the Linksys WRT54GS router and the open source, Linux-based firmware from Sveasoft.com. It does everything I wanted my SnapGear router to do at 1/3 the price, plus wireless. I’ll probably be getting rid of the SnapGear due to missing features and slow updates. The SnapGear was the best router from a feature standpoint when it was released, but the price was too high and no one developed any third-party firmware for it as far as I could tell.
