Re: best home router for openssh

Perhaps not the answer as I suspect you are looking for, but I
have ALWAYS just built my routers using old PC(s) running linux and
iptables and I have NEVER had any of these problems. If this seems
onerous, perhaps www.linuxrouter.org can make this easier. Besides
connectivity, you can sleep easier knowing what your router is really
doing.

Good luck...
