Linksys was recently acquired by Belkin, a company that is known more for commodity technology than anything else (e.g., cable adapters, audio and video cables, etc.).
One cannot be sure what will become of the Linksys products under its new owner.
Or stock up on their original routers while they last on sites like Amazon, etc. I just did an order the other day to get one of the better wireless routers made easy for firmware upgrading.
