Not really. You are getting what you are paying for and it's a good value if you consider what it is that you are getting.

1. Antivirus($50 to $100 Value)
2. Firewall(0-$200 value)
3. and Hacker Protection.
4. Just being able to offload the antivirus scanning and firewall duities away from your CPU onto a dedicated decivice alone makes it worth the $50 premeium over a DGL-4300.

Hardware firewalls are always a better choice vs software based firewalls. Combining the two can potetntial create a tough scenario for some of the best hackers.

I guess. But for most people. Smoothwall is usually good enough.

True!! I have always used both hard and soft firewall!!
I have the hard on my router and I use a freeware soft firewall!!

Not running AV because there is AV capability on the router is being ignorant.

AV blocking found in network gear is not the same as what is on your pc and doesn't replace a good av scanner on the PC.
