[QUOTE="GlowingBlueMist, post: 14107053"] If your internal network is going to remain wireless then you should see an increase in your internal network throughput. You most likely will not see any increase in your actual internet access unless the individual PC's were being slowed down by other internal traffic while accessing the internet. As for picking a replacement router, Linksys (or Cisco since they own them) do make some good machines. I would however consider possible future upgrades in your network or rather the router's firmware. I would go over to the DD-WRT web site and pick a Linksys/Cisco or other brand that is being supported by this alternate firmware, even if you don't want to use their firmware now. Having the ability of the router using it is a good selling point should you later decide to sell the router or want access to a feature that DD-WRT has that the original manufacturer left out. [URL]http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Supported_Devices#Cisco[/URL] Regardless of what brand/model router you pick, get one that has the larger amount of RAM and Flash memory as they allow for a broader range of features should you later decide to upgrade the firmware to actual DD-WRT. Just be sure to NOT pick a device that has "WIP" (Work in progress) in the "min required DD-WRT version" column of the chart. It usually means someone is trying to get that model working with the software but there is no telling if or when they will get it actually functional. [/QUOTE]
