Can anyone point me to a home (sub-$100) router that has a working SNMP
implementation or some other method to get the number of bits that have
traversed the WAN interface? I have a D-Link DI-604 now, which gives
packets for some unfathomable reason... :-) Absolutely useless, but try
telling them that :-)

You can get a managed switch on ebay. Look at the HP procurve models.
Check the specs on HP.com. Some of the low end models didn't have
management. Easy to use, just put the IP # of the switch into a
browswer and you'll see all the ports on the switch.

Procurve has a lifetime warrentee so it's hard to go wrong.

If you are up for it... Some (all?) of the Linksys home routers are loaded
with linux. There are hacks that let you get control of the linux
interface. Once you have done that you can install/configure snmp.

Hope that helps,

Jim
