Well, I have a cute Belkin wired router I'll be happy to sacrifice and
let go of cheap *grin*...darn thing can't reconnect to the DSL service
when the service drops out. I upgraded to a Linksys and have been much
happier since.
Gotta say, though, the whole shark-fin look is pretty cool. Anybody who
buys their network components just for the cool appearances would
absolutely love it!

Well, that is refreshing. However, Belkin tarnished their reputation.
Certainly not a smart marketing move in the consumer (read millions of
customers) arena.
Cheerio! fgd.
