Hi guys, my new edimax wireless N router is doing that annoying thing where it cuts out when using any kind of p2p software like bitlord etc. I have done some reading and it seems like some routers just dont handle all the connections with p2p too well. I like to have tons of downloads on the go at once, thats why I have a 20meg connection. I am prepared to replace the router but just wanna check with you guys first. Obviously the router has to be compatible with virgin media using the lan cable from the modem and I still want my full 20meg speed at least on my main pc which will be connected to the router through lan, will these routers do that?.
Was thinking of getting the Linksys WRT54GL or Linksys WRT54GS and putting this tomato software on it. Both get good reviews and seem quite similar anyway. 1Unless you look on amazon then there are some very poor customer reviews about drop outs and reboots, I also heard that different versions of those routers can be problematic which has left me lost lol.
Which one of them would you recommend? I have a 20meg cable virgin media connection and wanna connect my PS3 and my ipod touch through wifi. Will these routers handle the full 20mb speed of my connection and will they really be ok with p2p software? And which of the 2 should I go for? One more thing, do the above routers have functions for port forwarding etc as I play certain games that need ports to be forwarded/opened.
EDIT: done some more research it seems the GL is more stable than the GS.
thanks in advance
