whooops

to much atom-stuff from you and wtpe in here - hehe

Interesting part is it's power supply:
19V / 1.58A

I cannot believe this router has a power consumption of 30W (not even a ATOM complete system consumes that), its another interesting point to test / measure.

good stuff
the downside is that a very small shipment will be available this month, and real shipment begins next month...

according to docter asus at least:

Hello koaschten,
the RT-N66U should be available in January. It is rumored that a small delivery will arrive mid-December (!). There are no details on the "RT-N76U" yet.

instead of radio frequencies, they should measure the USB-Speed

Couldn't agree more.

Couldn't agree more.

in that case, to keep both german and english thread synced a bit...
!gm asked der Doktor Asus() what the speeds are:

http://www.hardwareluxx.de/community...31-post14.html

he says the micro sd card slot can handle SD high capacity cards up to 8GB. The router has to be opened up to access it, there's no way to access it from the outside.

I guess the speeds are pretty obvious...

In that case I hope there's no warranty seal

[!gm]

hehe thx bro

but I'm unsatisfied with his answer...
SD cards and readers are specified in classes according to their maximum write speed.

The plan is to buy a UHS-I SDHC Card to gather faster access, than the provided USB-Transfer speeds. Especially for webservers, swapping etc.

The harddrive would only be needed to store media, not programs anymore. This would save energy and (depending of your HDD) noise.

If it will support Class 10 - the thing will still be ok...

np lol

swapping etc.

watch out there... it's still flash memory
