I think if I was replacing a unit now, I'd seriously consider TP-Link.
Their gear seems to just work, and usually at very reasonable prices.

I'd ordinarily agree, but I've now had a Linksys WAG54G V3 going
strong for a while, very happy with it. I bought it second hand
because I didn't want to pay full price for my specific needs, which
from memory at the time included a removable antenna.

Anyway, I took a risk and got lucky. I don't imagine Senectus will be
taking that sort of risk for a family member in Albany!

Cheers,
Greg.
