>Need to replace a dying Linksys 4 port WIRED router. And i need at least one more port. Was looking at reviews for the Linksys 8 port BEFRS81 on amazon and cnet and a lot of the reviews are not flattering.. although a lot of the reviews are old. Anyone have this router?

I had the 8-port wired router for several years. It had to be replaced once when it got hit by a surge. I finally replaced it this summer when it was flakey (I was having to reset it a couple of times a week). I replaced it with the Linksys 4-port wired/wireless--so far, so good.
