We have 6 of these in the HomeParkWiFi.net community wireless.
Cool to telnet or ssh in and have a root shell on an appliance.
I use the SveaSoft Satori 4.0 firmware on them.
I don't view this "SpeedBooster" stuff to be that significant.
However, the GS has double the flash and double the RAM of it's
predecessor the G. For an extra $10 or so it's probably worth it.
More room for expansion.
