    Possibly in the market for a new router

    Personally, starting to seriously think about dumping boxed routers and going micropc route with 2.5G or better LANs and access points front and back of house, costs coming down to those of a top end router and even more flexible and longer life.

    Additional Device Icons

    Colours look nice, but strangely only 1 of 3 iphones in the list change to new icon. What we need is a nice little addon to do all tweaking of the jffs/usericon and matching them to the icon.
