You might want to upgrade the firmware to the one from OpenWRT (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Openwrt) Also take a look at http://www.ezplanetone.com/xwiki/bin/view/Router/
BTW on load balancing, what "load" are you trying to balance here. Did you mean your servers on the network? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of aampal aam Sent: 26 November 2008 09:42 To: [email protected] Subject: [ILUG-Cochin.org] Best Linux Router ??? Hi Group, We are planning to setup a Linux router for 60 nodes network. We use a cheaper solution of Linksys Router now, bit it doesn't got any options to monitor/limit the bandwidth usage of by users or IPs. We cannot afford a CISCO router. We have a leased line terminated by Ethernet on our end with static IP. Our main aim is: 1. Effective usage monitoring (IP based or User based). 2. Limit access 3. Define policies on security and access. 4.Load Balancing (if possible) 5. PC based What you guys think, an exclusive Linux Router Distro or some packages like Open Linux router is the best? as far as i read mOnO Wall/PFsense are good enough for our requirement..... which one is the best amongst this.... How about Smooth wall? Please pass Your thoughts and comments on these. Also Your experiments and observations. Awaiting for the support from the group.
