There are also a couple of reasons not to buy this router.
Using Firmware Version V1.0.3.56_1.1.25

Pros:
WiFi signals 10dB stronger than with my previous Billion Router AP.

Cons:
No SSH console.
SIP media connections fail (can't use SIP phones).
Amazon Glacier back up fail (no connection).
Reboots each time a configuration is changed.
Very limited configuration options.

If you need more than playing games.
Think twice, or get other firmware (which might negate other speed advantages).
