Re: [LI] Linux Router



Dear Mannu,

Thanx for the info.

I have visited both the sites.
First site is not updated from Feb 1997. Second one though updated a week back does not give much detail info. Getting these kinds products in India that too at affordable costs is also a big problem.

regards,

Vaibhav
