What netscreen's did you try, with what version of ScreenOS? I admit that some of the newer (5.1 & 5.2) trains of ScreenOS have yet to stablize, but 5.0.0r10 is pretty decent. In fact, the bits of this email are going to be sent through my 5XT on their way out to the 'net. ;-)

As for linksys, the WRT54G is a neat little box, but I've never found a sveasoft or dd-wrt firmware that was rock solid. The linksys boxes sort of remind me of Windows - OK if you don't mind rebooting them once in awhile. ;-)
