Re: Most reliable and speedy variety of WRT54G for Toomato/MLPPP

Well, glad to read this about the Buffalo. So far, I understand it's only *theoretically* supported, so i guess I will go with the WRT 54 GL.

As for the firewall, having everything on IPTABLES rules may seem very powerful, but I was never able to configure IPTABLES rules properly; they were too complex for me to understand/I was too stupid/lacked time to learn how a rule is written. Plus, when I tried that on my Ubuntu box through Firestarter, it screwed the whole system network functionalities.

But, if Tomato's default firewall interface sports the same kind of functionality as a standard router's one (say, allow incoming traffic on selected ports and redirect it to a given internal IP adress, block incoming port scans, have stealth mode as default), that would be good enough for me to start with.

As for your phone, you managed to find a decent plan for Internet access from a canadian carrier??

I'm a very satisfied Virgin Mobile customer.

My current prepaid plan is:

$20 - 200 anytime minutes
$10 - Unlimited local incoming minutes
$7 - Unlimited on-phone internet (I use the GMail and Opera Mini apps)

Plus the e911 fee and tax.
