I was using DD-WRT firmware on my v2.3 Linksys WRT54G router, but Having recently switched to Vonage for VOIP service at home, this is because I was interested in using QOS features to prioritize the Vonage calls over everything else, and drop any BitTorrent traffic down to the lowest priority yet still provide much bandwidth as possible when my connection is idle. My personal experience and subsequent research had shown that DD-WRT did not have a QOS implementation that was working for me; every time I enabled it and tried to get QOS working, the router would lock up, forcing a hard reset. So my personal review about the the linksys router was satisfactory. but the problem is in the firmware i was using.

Thanks for your help, So can you tell me which Firmware should buy with my linksys router, this would be the added help for me to choose the best possible combination for both.

Thanks again

Tomato is a small and simple replacement firmware and also developed another well know firmware HyperWRT +Tofu.

following are the special points with Tomato:

• simple, efficient and modern Ajax enabled UI
• build in traffic monitor with really nice SVG graphs
• excellent preset QoS that actually works and also has graphing abilities which help a lot when "debugging" QoS
• pre-configured with high connection limits for for P2P
