hi,

i'm about at the end of my rope with Linksys and there lack of development for their products. as such i need to replace my wrt600n unit with something else, and i wanted to see what current users would recommend me looking into / purchasing.

must haves:
wpa2-psk & wpa-tkip
mac address filtering
embedded 4 port fastE switch
stable
current platform that D-Link will be developing on, or fully functional 3rd party firmware exists
wireless g
AP only
ability to pair with linksys wet200 bridge
ability to assign manual dhcp reservations

nice to haves:
wireless n
embedded 4 port gigE switch
fully functional syslog

AP+router

please fire away with any/all suggestions, and thanks in advance.

Make sure you are not getting DIR-615 HW C1. Wireless will work only on WEP encryption.

Make sure you do not buy this router PERIOD.

This thing needs to be restarted daily nearly, looses wireless clients, stops handing out DHCP leases on the wireless side, it is quite honestly the worst router I have had to deal with. Unless you are purchasing this for someone you dont like, then look else where.
