I have a ton of these that I'm very happy with:

The heavily-used ones exhibit the problem described at:

...but that's a driver, not a hardware, issue. The one in the router at 
my house doesn't exhibit the problem, the two differences there being 
that the machine is 7.0-RELEASE, and there are only a couple of clients 
connected to it, as opposed to the ~30 connected to my heavily-used ones.
