Background

JANUARY 2010



The ASUS RT-N16 router is now available in most counties, it is clocked at 480MHz and has 128MB of RAM. Teddy Bear is the first to port Tomato over to it - and even the first "beta" is stable. Keep an eye on this thread http://www.linksysinfo.org/forums/showthread.php?t=63587 From now on, it would be best to use this for the main router and WRT54GL for AP's.

There seems little point in type "N" AP's unless they operate on the 5GHz band, due to interference problems. However, if you use 5GHz the poor penetration of walls and the short range makes it almost useless for use in most apartment buildings. A "G" 54Mbps connection is going to be the standard for some years yet, and for many such reasons will be the best solution. ​
