Anyone use NetGear equipment?
I was looking at the new NetGear RP614 4 PORT CABLE/DSL WEB ROUTER. It has a beautiful design, and to be honist while I like my Linksys the constaint reboots are driving me nuts! Anyone use NetGear on a regular basis?
Advice? Also if anyone has any screen shots of the web interfact that would also rock, I would love to see it in action.

I used a NetGear DSL/Cable router a couple years ago and hated it..
the only way to configure it was via serial cable. Plus, it had very little options. I have the linsys 4 port and love it. I have never had to reboot mine. Are you running the latest firmware on it? I'm running 1.42.7, which I think is the latest. The new firmware gives you the option to force a DHCP release/renew, so you shouldn't ever have to reboot it.

Actually all the Sun servers we use are very large enterprise servers...
so there was no rack mounting. I have put up Dell racks like they are going out of style, same with Compaw, and HP. Never Sun though. Personally I hate racks in general, they are hard to access inside the rack, and repair work is near impossible.

Some Linksys router firmware versions have problems...
that may need to reset. However, I think is one of the best out in the market. I had also a problem with my firmware, but I went to their web support page, got the last version, installed in minutes, and now works like a charm.
I also have the WAP11 wireless ethernet gateway, that I dream to interface to the TT some day. Only I need time and the TT :-(

I've racked Sun servers, they're not all bad. Netra T1's, 250's and 450's aren't bad...
1405's and 4500's are pretty big though. We have some E10K's also, they're like refrigerators and don't go in racks 
Client is bringing in 2 of the new Sunfire 6800's next week, those are cool.

I have been using my linksys router for over a year, no prob...
I have updated the firmware on it once. I rarely have to reboot it, maybe 4 times since I had it.
Tomorrow I can get you a screen shot if nobody has by then, just not home tonight.

Yeah, something like that! ...
I also would like to do some image processing and I need a powerfull base in the car. I am thinking some embedded 500Mhz or faster. I saw your MobilePC pics... cool! What did you use as hardware? What about OS, did you progam it by yourself?
