Router link

I was thinking of getting this to share DSL throughout 4 PC's (including a file server). Any thoughts on it? My friend recommends it highly... but checking with some extra people.

I just got this router a few days ago. Works fine so far, no problems whatsoever. Nice, simple web-based app to do the small amount of configuring that's needed.

I have the 4port but havent set it up yet... have any of you read that this baby is slower in performance vs. the netgear on & the linksys one?

I say go all the way for the smc barricade. I have had it for a couple of months now and I haven't even noticed it at all. I have 4 computers hooked up to it and it zooms. I use DSL. I also have the linksys and it was nothing but problems with the router and the service offered was absolutely pathetic.
Just my $1.00.
