hi guys ive been trying to find the cheapest fastest router for my 30mbps internet connection
i got a linksys 1500 and it goes over 1.00 cpu load when i torrent at around 20mbps .When that happens Qos goes to hell
so ive been looking everywhere for the best/cheapest router and i found a used WNR3500 for 30 dollars
now the problem is which version is best ?
supported Tomato Shibby Router List
as you can see there are 3 versions supported
Netgear WNR3500L v1 v2 and Netgear WNR3500 U v2
now i went to see what SOCs they were using so i could buy the fastest here is where the confusion sets in
wikipedia says that V1 uses BCM4718 and V2 uses BCM47186 but OpenWrt says that v2 uses BCM5357 so im a bit confused here if some one here owns a WNR3500L could u help me out
and is BCM4718>BCM47186 ?
