    asus 3100 going bad, whats a good replacement for less than $200

    a while back it locked up and only a full reset and flash of original bios fixed it. Now about every 2 or 3 minutes it looses connection on all ports, it last about 4 or 5 seconds. I switched to an old netgear and no problems so it must be the router. I guess its time to find a replacement.

    do the newer routers still have need for DDWRT

    I am going to buy a new router and always used tomato or dd-wrt in the past. It seems that the new routers are locked down and can not be flashed any more. This is what I have read on the dd-wrt site. I think the main thing I got from it anyway was total usage and a few other things. Is it...

    do all commercial nas's now put jbod into a single unit

    I have some older nas's that allow each drive to be used individually but now all nas manufactures seem to roll jbod into a single device.
