[Lancaster] looking for a good wifi router

[Pepe Palau]

I have been using a Linksys e2000 running dd-wrt for a year and I am very
happy so far:
root at DD-WRT:~# uptime
 19:38:35 up 185 days,  5:57, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00

I think e2000 is the same than e1000 plus gigabit, and e3000 is also the
same plus USB connection.
