Linksys is also one of those companies that will change a product in
completely incompatible ways, keep the name, but give it a new revision
and not put that revision on the box.  At least D-Link and Asus clearly
label revisions on the box so you can tell what you are buying.

Also Linksys boxes tend to run very hot in my experience.
