Post subject: Hardware Router Chart

Tom's Hardware has released a pretty good comparison chart for Routers. While routers haven't been my first choice for small networks, the gap is closing fast on speed, ease of use and better company/documentation.

As broadband is getting to be more the 'norm' than the excception, the connections are better/faster (think wireless and GB LAN speeds) routers are more commonplace than they used to be. But, not all routers are created equal and this chart will help you decide if the router you use now is the best choice or if you're going to buy a new one, should be a great tool for making an informed decision...

New Grist for the Mill

No sooner had the bits dried on the first posting of this chart, than we heard from a reader via our Forumz who had a different take on our findings. You can read the thread starting here, but the upshot of the discussion is that we're taking a look at beefing up our router throughput testing.

The first fruits of the test process enhancement effort will be shown in an article to be published next week. The article will attempt to answer the question of which, if any, of the latest and greatest consumer routers can handle the demands of P2P applications like BitTorrent and eDonkey when used on a high-bandwidth connection. And when we say "high-bandwidth", we mean 10 Mbps and up and not the piddling stuff that most of us here in the U.S. have to pay top price for.
