Please log in for more thread options Just looking for some opinions on the Asus WL-520gC. It supports WDS which is something I'm looking for, and over here it's dirt cheap (currently $49AUD a unit). I'm thinking of picking up two and using WDS to have one acting as a repeater downstairs. Has anyone had any experience with this router? I'm starting to think that it may be a dud considering how cheaply it's being sold. I've survived quite nicely with a Netcomm NB5540 (has no detachable antennas at all) so far, so I don't really need a feature-packed unit, just one that works, can be easily bridged, and is reasonably inexpensive. Cheers, any suggestions welcome. -- - dcf | |||||||||||||

In the past I used to have a look at the whirlpool forums as I used a
few linksys items and it used to a good source of info.There doesn't appear to many questions about the 520gC at the moment but it might be worth asking there as it is a net.au and someone may know of any peculiarities of it's use in Australia. At one point there was a firmware upgrade specific to users in Oz. http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/ http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=8564 > I've survived quite nicely with a Netcomm NB5540 (has no detachable
