I actually use a linux box with BBIAgent running currently.. the cheap easy solution.. Found a Pentium Pro and a handful of nics, popped them in and i was up and running for no cost... hence why im not using a router

i would like to switch over to a regular hardware router for electricity/noise/wireless ability concerns but until then I am ok...

i have been thinking about picking up a 300mb hard drive from around my room somewhere and actually putting either a barebones Slack or Gentoo linux on it and rnuning the router from that with a few neat features, but I havent had the time.. would rather get my server box up and running before i do any router tweaking (plus the whole roommates "The internet isn't working" is annoying).

actually going with my girlfriend to go buy a wireless router.. I think she will be getting a Linksys.. i told her we could get one online cheaper, but she wants it now so we are heading to bestbuy.. anyone have any thoughts regarding linksys (or any bestbuy) wireless routers?
