I wonder how a router like this would function with say, Xbox 360s set up on it, as opposed to PCs. Would a flash drive be shareable in the same way, and would the performance and speed be equivocably worth the price tag when used for console gaming LANs? Anyone know for sure?
I have the current Generation D-Link Game Router and it works perfectly with XBOX...in fact, it has built in rules to handle the 360 and XBOX LIVE (i.e., it automatically detects the XBOX and opens up the neccessary ports for connectiong to XBOX Live. And I have multiple 360s on my LAN and it hanldes all of them without any lag or drops...before I had a Linksys wireless router, and as soon as we had three people online at the same time, the lag would cause all games to become unplayable...

im sure flash/hard drive are universal - something that you can just plug in without needing external drivers..
on that note, it would have been nice to see them include support for a network printer.
