Thanks for the info FP! I appreciate it.. So even if I'm streaming HD quality rips via Plex I should be OK? I haven't tried it yet, but will when I get home and see how it goes..FlyingPenguin wrote:I've been using Tomato instead of DD-WRT lately. Much simpler to Flash, and a very clean control panel. It also reboots MUCH quicker after making setting changes.

Unless you NEED 802.11n speeds, I'd stick to the WRT54G. That's what I use - I have 3 of them around the house setup with the same wireless settings (but different radio channels) so that devices just stay connected no matter where you walk in the house.
Honestly, unless you're transferring files, you don't need N wireless speeds. Wireless G is WAY faster than your internet. I also strongly believe G has better range.
The only good excuse for N is if you live in an apartment building with a lot of other routers nearby. Getting a newer N300 router will put you on an empty area of the spectrum.
Thanks!
