Re: Linksys If your line is less than 100Mbps I see the WRT54GL still to be useful. My home connection is now 1Gbps, so 100Mbps would not suit my needs. |

Boston, MA | Your Internet connection is 1Gbps, or your LAN? If it's your LAN, you don't need to use the Linksys as a switch, you can get a cheap 1Gbps switch and use that internally, and connect it to the Linksys (at 100Mbps) only to get out to the internet. |

In my experience, the WRT54GL (with my PC wired to it) couldn't reliably push 30Mbps WAN to LAN. Under ideal circumstances SmallNetBuilder was only able to achieve 53Mbps WAN to LAN.

Are you in Kansas City? Otherwise, I don't think any other ISP in US sells gbit? None the less, the ports are 100mbit so unless your net is TRUE gbit, 100mbit is sufficient. |
