Linksys WRT54GL for 49.99 shipped free after 10.00 MIR from Amazon

Search and didn't find. Ripped from FW.

Linksys WRT54GL router for 59.99 with a 10.00 MIR for 49.99. This is the cheapest price I found even within Pricegrabber and Pricewatch. Newegg is second cheapest at 69.99 with same rebate.

There are many routers cheaper but this is for the people that like to run 3rd party software. These are similar to the WRT54G ver 1 to 4 that were able to run 3rd party software.

The buffalo and asus routers are better than the linksys equipment. They can run the same 3rd party firmwares. You can usually find them cheaper than linksys also. The best would probably be asus, but they're harder to find. You can get the buffalo for $49.99 from best buy with no rebates. There may be better deals on them now or in the future. I got my buffalo for $30AR at CC not quite a month ago.

The asus WL-566gM is probably one of the fastest mimo routers on the planet right now with a throughput of 93.33 Mbit! But its more than $120, so not for us hotdealers.
Plus there's no third party firmwares either, because its 802.11n, so another minus. I bet all that will change though.

looks like the buffalo doesn't support WPA2...no good.

Using a free 3rd party firmware (http://www.dd-wrt.com) on the Linksys WRT54GL or the Buffalo mentioned above will give you WPA2 and a HUGE list of additional features. Well worth the cost of the router.

ah so this WPA2 is a software thing then...didn't know that. Thanks.
