Been using with cable-modem service for past 2 years now.

Most helpful has been the "forced MAC" feature for the WAN port. It has made a life of using a few, various PC's on the same cable modem very convenient. (if you catch my meaning)

Performance is satisfactory, firewall isn't bulletproof but indeed effective against general port-scans, pings, and ordinary attacks.

Amount of features is impressive; from NAT to Port Triggers to Port Forwarding and even Virtual Servers, this product has a bunch to offer.

My only complaint; the configuration interface. (DHTML over LAN) While it surely looks nifty, the interface is only half-usable through browsers other than MS-IE 5.5 or later. In particular, the "pseudo-input" features under such areas as Port Forwarding and Routing Tables are useless without the finicky DHTML features supported by MS-IE (and only MS-IE). Still looking for firmware updates (none to date from Moto) or an OSS alternative using embedded Linux. If you make it, holler!
