Verizon Wireless has the Verizon VZ7501ROUT 802.11g Wireless Router for $10 with free overnight shipping. Your standard wireless G router except for the fact that its made from Verizon Wireless.

Seems to have an unusually strong wireless signal for such an unassuming device. Definitely some potential here. 32MB RAM, 8MB flash, but bootloader still locked, so no third party support from dd-wrt or similar projects. OTOH, there are several nice hacks under development, including converting it to a wireless client bridge and Lemonade.

Perfect basic wireless router. Runs like a champ. And Verizon really does ship it to you overnight. Got mine when they were $7.50, but don't expect to see that price again. If I needed more, $10 would be a steal.

Thanks for the info. I have this router from the last time it was on here. It works. I'll have to try the hack. Seems like a good deal if the hack works.

Any opinions on the USB drive access speed? I've heard bad firmware/hacks make drive access slow.
