I think best bet will be cisco ASA series.

Did you check your router manual how many active ssession can handle?

I would say to spend a little more and get a business-class SOHO router. I use a Linksys WRT610N for wireless duties, but a Zyxel Zywall 5 as my firewall/router. A PC running pfSense (or as mentioned, Mikrotik) would be ideal, but would suck a lot of power.

Another option is to put two network cards in an older PC and run Mikrotik on it. I use a 1ghz PIII with 512mb RAM. The OS runs on a 128mb CF card, and there is a 40gb hard drive for the web proxy to use for caching.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-A-stable-router-is-a-flashed-Linksys-WRT54GL-the-answer-23310484 Sun, 08 Nov 2009 14:52:46 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-A-stable-router-is-a-flashed-Linksys-WRT54GL-the-answer-23308589
Thousands of hours were spent using BT. No slowdowns, no pages failing to load, etc. SO rock solid and highly recommended.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-A-stable-router-is-a-flashed-Linksys-WRT54GL-the-answer-23308589 Sat, 07 Nov 2009 23:43:30 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-A-stable-router-is-a-flashed-Linksys-WRT54GL-the-answer-23285841
My router/firewall (and then some) is a mature notebook running OpenBSD, which never fails and will best many small Cisco routers easily, but there is a bit of a learning curve for the uninitiated.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-A-stable-router-is-a-flashed-Linksys-WRT54GL-the-answer-23285841 Tue, 03 Nov 2009 16:51:16 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/A-stable-router-is-a-flashed-Linksys-WRT54GL-the-answer-23285411
I used to use a Netgear WPNT834 which was an average router. Speeds werent great and I did get less lockups, but it still would at times.

Someone suggested to me that a cheap very stable alternative is WRT54GL with Tomato or DD-WRT firmware.

Here is what my network load can be like. I host a webserver with 1200 users, 100 at a time can happen , but not the norm. A lightly used Slingbox, 3 hard wired PCs, and 1 wireless laptop.

I just need stability at a good speed. I dont stream or bitorrent a this time. I just want mys server to be available and stop getting router lockups. Is the Linksys open source solution for real? I have read where many swear by it while others say its an acceptable low cost router solution.

Any help is greatly appreciated.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/A-stable-router-is-a-flashed-Linksys-WRT54GL-the-answer-23285411 Tue, 03 Nov 2009 15:44:28 EDT
