Here's another vote against Linksys, whether you run Linux or Windows.
I've read positive reviews in PC Magazine about their 54G gear,
particularly if you are "all Linksys" and can use their setup buttons.
But my experience has been completely negative, from routers which
randomly lock up and need rebooting to utility programs that leak memory
at 4KB per minute.  From what I've seen, Linksys devices don't even run
well on Windows.

My tech support experience with Linksys has been so bad, I won't
describe it in public.
