[DEAD: Price Raised and No More Free Shipping] Asus RT-N16 Wireless N Gigabit Router + (2) 10ft cat5e cables $82 shipped free or $77AC at Mwave

Did you confirm that your client is 802.11N and supports 40MHz (wide) 2.4GHz mode? I remember reading some that some Intel clients either do not or require a setting change to enable it.

Can this be used as cable modem too ?

OK, figured it out. You are right, my iphone 4, although supports 801.11n, doesn't go above 65mbps (apparently). When it disconnects, the speed rating on the router goes up to 300mbps I just thought it was the maximum when it was just automatically adjusting to fit the needs of the devices connected to it.

It's what I'm using on mine. I did load DD-WRT which I also have a long history with. But my recent history is more with Tomato. I also look forward to trying the Tomato "RAF" [is-a-geek.com] v1.28.8550 (for RT-N16 or MIPSR2 routers-kernel 2.6) release that is literally only days old. But doing so means a complete NVRAM reset and reconfiguration which I'm not quite up to at the moment. I've used the RAF builds on my older Linksys routers and found it full featured and stable so am looking forward to trying it out on my RT-N16. I believe Victek and Teddy Bear have both had RT-N16s since around December of last year as have I. Victek, Teddy Bear and Jon Zarate have seemingly all worked cooperatively together and even with some DD-WRT folks as I understand it. It's great to see such cooperation and the products of it.

FYI, loaded up Tomato RAF on my RT-N16 and it is running fine. There is a minor bug on the usage graphs but runs fine anyway, and I'm sure that will be fixed shortly. Whether you run teddy bears TomatoUSB [tomatousb.org] or Victek's Tomato RAF [is-a-geek.com]Victek's Tomato RAF really depends on the features you need. Refer to the releases site links or there is an overview comparing release features here [wikipedia.org]. I'm not sure it's up to date but should be mostly correct.
