Dlink DI-524 Wireless router
Last week, I bought a cheap Dlink wireless router for $50. I must say that it does the job. It maintains the wireless connections as well as the Internet connection. It is more reliable than my old 802.11b wireless router which I paid 3 times more about 3 years ago. I was not able to configure the WPA authentication. I have defaulted on WEP. I had to put some authentication on my wireless network since there are some people who were abusing it by downloading large files. It was the only open wireless network for 2.5 years until one day, the connection was dead slow due to some leachers. You should not count on WEP or WPA for your encryption. SSL and SSH protocols must be used to ensure end-to-end security.
