I don't see any reason why you can't mount the AT router where you intend to put it as long as it's out of the weather (indoors as it will be) and you have things hooked up in the correct places. You are not going to have any kind of "distance" problem in your townhouse...the limit for wired Ethernet is 100 meters end-to-end max. (Including patches) In fact, is sounds like putting the AT router in that location is nearly ideal given you don't intend to use it for the wireless side.

I was told by an installer last week that the ActionTec router tends to be sensitive to such things as heat and humidity. It may work just fine in your garage over the winter, but may start degrading in the heat of summer.

i'm very interested to see how this works out because i've set things up in a similar fashion. all of my hardware is in the garage. the installers agreed to mount the actiontec in the garage and expressed no concerns.

My router is installed in the garage. The installer didn't blink an eye. I had the impression he does it that way all the time.
