Seems pretty cheap for a N router. Belkin brand is pretty good, but i don't know the quality of this router...reviews seem mixed. Any personal experiences?

If it supported Tomato/DD-WRT I might bite... unless this has changed:

Yeah it can work with a MAC system but you wont have the full functionality for MAC OS. There may be a patch that can be downloaded. Cheers

Nice deal. Belkin routers don't get much notice compared to D-Link and Linksys (or even the cheapies like Trendnet), but any one I have used has always been reliable

Don't see it in the DD-WRT or OpenWRT support list.

This router does not support DD-WRT. It is a pretty stable and good router for home use. The only issues I had with it was with setting up UpNP and QoS.
