I've owned nine WRT-54Gs since 2003 (a couple were WRT-54GLs) - If I had some assurance that this $300 Wireless router actually went through some ALT/HALT procedures, and was designed to last for five years (Maybe include a five year warrantee), I would buy it in a heartbeat.

I'm not expecting Cisco Aironet quality (though, the ones we installed in 2007/2008 have been serving several hundred people day without a hiccup) - but is it too much to ask for a solid state appliance that gives me 5 good years of service?
