Im upgrading my home wireless router. Reading reviews for P2P ratings at Tom's arent conclusive because they dident test opensource OS's. So my question is:



What wireless router is best, specialising in P2P and VoIP connections?
Netgear RangeMax 240 which got top scores at http://www.tomsnetworking.com/2006/04/19/which_router_for_p2p/page6.html but his tests were specifically aimed at testing massive amounts of connections whereas VoIP is a single connection.
Or a WRT54gL running a open source OS for P2P connectivity (which Toms dident test:mad: ). Or is there another model out there that i dont know?




I have a $150 budget at Bestbuy. The P2P apps i run are (Skype, Torrent, WoWPatch, Etc.)
 
I can't speak for P2P, but any modern SOHO router should be fine for unmanaged (Vonage, etc.) VoIP service. VoIP does not require large amounts of bandwidth, so the only thing you could need is the ability to do a pass-through for VoIP signalling protocols such as SIP.
 
Iv scoured the manual on the Rangemax router to see if it supports SIP pass-through. The closest thing i could find is
Supports 2 VPN pass-through tunnels (IPSec, L2TP, PPTP)
