I have had Linksys wireless routers for several years now. Annoyingly they all tend to drop the wireless connection every few days, so I've gotten accustomed to rebooting the devices pretty frequently. Recently, based on recommendation from a colleague, I flashed my router with dd-wrt, an open source firmware. And lo and behold, ever since then the device has been functioning flawlessly. Identical hardware, similar environment, and under the same workload, but with a renegade alternative to the "professional" official firmware.
Indeed, quality is a product of passion, not of money.
Zzzzz...
