    This is available at Circuit City for $29.99 the Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving.

    The Buffallo WHR-HPG54 is one one of the best G routers out there once it is flashed with DD-WRT or Tomato. Excellent range and rock solid stability. This is by far the best price I have seen on it.

    I have installed several of these Buffalo WHR-HPG54 routers for people and they are by far the best, most stable, easiest to install routers out there. AOSS is the easiest way to secure a session. We have one installed where it radios the signal going through a 14" concrete wall with 4 cabinet style full metal filing cabinets behind that, then on to a Buffalo WLI-TX4-G54HP Ethernet Converter that connects to an embroidery machine. The embroidery machine connects to the Internet for downloads etc. No other router of this value would even touch the power output or distance these have routers have done. And all at a sustained 125Mbps throughput for LAN traffic! I have installed Netgear, D-Link, Linksys, Belkin and Buffalo. Buffalo wins every time. The only gotcha is the lawsuit against them mentioned here. This is making inventory hard to find. My advice is to get them while you can.

    **Disclaimer - I do not work for Buffalo Technology or for Circuit City. I just really like Buffalo Technology routers and products.**
