I have a Dynalink RTA1320, it's the Orcon deal. It's quite a nice
device, runs Linux of some variety. I haven't figured out how to save
iptables rules, other than through the web interface. The shell does
get very slow when there's a lot of traffic, but it's stable - I
generally get logged off once a week. It doesn't always automatically
restart though, which is a pain. I'll get a script to do it someday.
