In the market for a new router, need opinions - FenixR - 2013-06-21

Right now im settling in getting this one a Cisco-LinkSys WRTS4GL which is cheap, suit my needs and if needed i can further improve it installing a custom firmware.

What do you think SP is that Router good or not? Also what other routers would you suggest?

Here is the quick list of what i need in a router:

-3 Machines connected via wired rj45 utp cable.
-Wireless is nice since we have a few devices that use it.
-(IMPORTANT) QoS so i can put in higher priority my online games like League of Legends (Main reason why i want a new router Big Grin)
-Don't care if its really potent or not, Internet is really shitty in my country so i think even the lowest budget router could work 10 times faster/better than my internet connection.
-Price range of 40-70$
-Support for dd-wrt is also nice when i decide i need more out of my router lol.

Isn't that thing ancient? I remember seeing that router at the dealership I worked out 7 years ago.

Tp-Link

MikroTik
Two of the finest yet cheapest routers out there.
You can check the specs you're looking for and then check the availability in your country.
