[svlug] $9.99 Staples-Fry's - Wifi/Firewall Router $19, 160GB Disk $40

[Anthony Ettinger]

For what it's worth, I have the MR814v2 ($10 is a good
price), and it's awesome. Slower speed obviously, but
as far as the features you'd want in a router it has
it all, port forwarding, wifi, 4-port, web
configuration (works fine in FireFox). Also has a way
to change the macaddress, so you can pull a new ip
from comcast or whoever. Typically, you wouldn't need
this, but I got my ip banned once from Google (I had
an open proxy server running), and had to release it
to get back to the site.
