After several occasions of dropped connections and conflicting IP addresses, I decided my hex core server needed a new router to reach its full potential. The ASUS RT-N16 was on special and matched all the features of my WNR3500 with the addition of USB sharing/printing which I'll never use. The real clincher was the promise of a "powerful CPU" and "Support up to 300,000 sessions." The Engrish wasn't limited to their promotional materials; it's all through the configuration screens, making setup an adventure. After brushing up on my mandarin, it's now up and running with the "powerful CPU" routing packets from my hex core server faster than light (that's right, I've invalidated the mass–energy equivalence). Don't be surprised if your NIC starts smoking after visiting this website.
