Yeah, I would agree for the most part, I have a Linksys BEFSR41, and it can really vary on quality depending on the firmware versions... Lately Linksys seems to be breaking more than fixing with the latest firmware patches... For example, uPNP in 1.44 is broken.

I use a combo of ISA and the DLINK DI614+ for firewall and WAP, though I do recommend Linksys to most of my customers. Makes me wish I bought stock in that company a year or two ago
