It sports a modern veneer of white and silver colored plastic. The length and width dimensions are slightly larger than your typical Linksys router. The status lights on the front are lit with orange LEDs. It is silent, passively cooled with plenty of ventilation holes along the top and bottom surface. The orange LEDs shine through the holes, but are only noticeable in dark lighting conditions. The AC adapter is fairly slim and does not hog up multiple spots on a standard power strip.</del></td><td>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; font-size: smaller;"></td></tr> <tr><td>-</td><td style="background: #ffa; font-size: smaller;">&#160;</td><td>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; font-size: smaller;"></td></tr> <tr><td>-</td><td style="background: #ffa; font-size: smaller;"><del style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">It offers several advantages over more popular G routers like the venerable Linksys WRT54GL. The most predominant advantage is the 8MB flash and 32MB of SDRAM, allowing DD-WRT Mega builds and plenty of resources for increased IP connections, ipkg installs, JFFS2 partitions, etc. The dual USB 2.0 ports allow USB printers and storage devices to be connected, and the 240MHz BCM5354 is faster than the 200MHz BCM5352 found in the WRT54GL.</del></td><td>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; font-size: smaller;"></td></tr> <tr><td>-</td><td style="background: #ffa; font-size: smaller;">&#160;</td><td>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; font-size: smaller;"></td></tr> <tr><td>-</td><td style="background: #ffa; font-size: smaller;"><del style="color: red; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">One drawback of this router is the single antenna pole. It may be the case that dual antennas is just an illusion of signal range, I cannot say for sure. Also, no overclocking support in DD-WRT as of v24 SP1 and no integrated GigE switch.</del></td><td>+</td><td style="background: #cfc; font-size: smaller;"></td></tr> <tr><td>-</td><td style="background: #ffa;
