Should I Buy a New Router (for Tomato)
Last response: in Wireless Networking
Hi all, I am wondering if I should buy a new router since my WRT54GS v6. does not support Tomato, it does support DD-WRT though, but most places that I have read recommend Tomato. I am primarily interested in the WiFi boosting, Bandwidth Monitoring and Bandwidth Allocation.
My main questions are (so far):
1. Is it worth buying a new relatively cheap router (around $60) that will support Tomato?
2. Do any newer (relatively cheap) routers that have any of these features built-in?
I also just switched my ISP and they are sending me a new modem, it's a Technicolor DCM476 DOCSIS 3. Would my WRT54GS v6 be fine with the new modem if I don 't get a new router?
Let me know if you need any other info, thanks![:)]( ":)")
