我個人意見就唔建議用PC 做router

2. 專用 r ...

I consider the opposite (not to offend your professional knowledge in the field)
but i seldom found router(non commerical/enterprise grade) got what I need
such as blocking QQ, MSN and provide detail log files on what is going on, is it true

and I found nowadays i3 or i5 can consume less than 30W and pc router is very flexible
and I just buy 2 port intel server lan card FROM taobao ~RMB100 only


why use linksys (SPA3000, I cosider not stable, too hot will hang it with no reason) or OBi100
and not an analog card built into the PC for the pstn gateway

by the way I use TDM410p  (4 port) and now change to TDM800p (also from Taobao)
and find it very reliable for almost 1 year
The TDM finishing is excellent and the component looks fine too.

although the main board (VIA C7 nc2500 ==== rubbish ) gone, capacitor broken down
and the asterisk server (centos of elastix) down in a sudden.

just for sharing only

may be I share my map later

It depends on what you intend to do so. Most routers have almost a lot of functions that one can utilize in daily computer operations. Similarly, unless you are doing server hosting, serious gaming, BT, video streaming,  you do not need that high wan to LAN throughput but more concern at the qos, reliability and security.

I am interested to look at your system setup
