<p dir="ltr"> I need some advice regarding a new router modem. My old Linksys WRT54G finally died on me, so I need to get a new router and I thought to replace it with a combined router/modem. I looked on the cheapo Edimax ar-7186WnA and on paper it seems to support almost everything I need. Things lacking seem to be selectable DDNS server, different input and output ports for portforwarding, but I realize that my always turned on raspberry pi 2 can fill in for what is missing. Of course I am also giving up the ability to put replacement firmware on the router, but in any case I was never doing anything "interesting" with it, and again if I need some fancy stuff, I guess that the raspberry can do it. I am currently using the "old" ADSL connection, as I have not yet updated to NGN, but if I understand things correctly the 7186 supports Annex M needed for NGN, so I can always update.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Did I miss something? Does someone have any experience with this modem/router or can you recommend something else?</p>
<p dir="ltr">Thanks in advance!<br>
