    Draytek routers

    I did a bit of a test recently, a Draytek 2910, vs a Linksys RV042. The DrayTek is a newer router, not an apples to apples comparison -- but the Linksys is recommeded a lot around here. Hardware: Linksys I have no clue what the Draytek has inside. Test: uTorrent 1.8.3, CentOS 5.3 CDs...
