JohnBFisher: #linksys_wrt610n KISS. That helps.

First, I only use the web management interface. You can get to it with either http://192.168.1.1/ or http://wrt610n/ (if you have "NetBIOS over TCP/IP" enabled on your PC). Don't even try the software that comes with the router. It's a perfect case of bloatware!

It takes a good bit of tweaking to get the router up and running. I use Wireless-N mode on the 5Ghz band and Wireless-G on the 2.4Ghz band. Mixed mode just did not seem to want to work. I might have gotten it to work, but it seemed easier to use this approach.

To augment the router, I use inSSIDer (at http://www.metageek.net/products/inssider ) to find open channels and get the best "bang for the buck". I also use WallWatcher (at http://www.wallwatcher.com/ ) to monitor the activity at and through the router.

Plus, if I need it dd-wrt appears to be pretty stable at this point on this router.

But once it is up and running it is FAST and stable. No drop out of signal. And better signal range than the D-Link DGL-4300 that it replaced. Apr 2, 10
