Thanks for reminding me that I already have two more routers sitting on 
a shelf! I got one when I bought my DVR, since it needed a network 
connection and I didn't have an Ethernet cable near the TV. I have since 
installed three drops of CAT5 cable and took that wrt54g out of service. 
Then, I acquired another wrt54g from my sister who no longer needed it.

I know both of them work, so when the Netgear finally gives up for good, 
I can install one of the the wrt54gs.

Thanks again.
