I assume you are correct. I was thinking it was the other way around tho. That said, since he wants something more than a LinkSys router, it's going to cost something. Me, I got me a $10.00 refurbed LinkSys and called it a day. Thing is, I don't need anything fast or expensive. I did want something that was cheap on power tho. Trying to cut back a bit on the old watt meter. I already got two freezers running here. One could build a bare bones rig and just use that. I'm not sure it would be much cheaper tho. May use more power from the wall too. That is why I picked the fanless version. I figured if it needed no fans, it can't pull to much power. It also seemed to have lots of CPU speed for a router. $400.00 for a router . . . that better be one HECK of a router. Maybe wash dishes or something too. o_O Dale :-) :-)
