Hi Martin,
Although it’s nice to introduce something new, it’s not about who introduces it first, it’s about usability and style, performance and stability.
I love fon (I actually applied for a job at your Madrid offices a couple of days ago!) and I know for sure the Liberator is going to look fabolous and at least 3 times smaller
Greetings,
H. Tabor

Hola,
Yes it is a very good router. I think that is the Asus WL-600g . I’ve read this news few months ago… (2006-07-25) so it is quiet old news but the stuff and the idea is still new on the market.

Hello Martin,
will the FON Liberator have a RJ45 port for an internal network? Just like the WRT-54g?
If it will not have that, it will be uselesse for me, since I still have computers at home, that I want to have connected by wire.
Small size of the Liberator does not matter for me. I would love the FON Liberator to have space and connectors to mount a cheap 3,5″ hard drive into it! I do not like to have an extra case with an extra power supply to attach a USB hard drive to a tiny little FON Liberator.
Best regards, Hans-Peter

Hi Hans-Peter,
Definitely, the Liberator will have the extra RJ45 LAN port for your wired PCs, agry with you is a must! Regarding size, we are making it small because it can be used with USB FLASH Dongles that now have sizes from 2 to 10Gb, for some Foneros this is a great advantage because with a small Liberator and with just a Dongle they can have real NAS substitute, pretty cool.

It’s the ASUS WL 700G give by Fon France to Martin
In France, they aren’t very happy because now they can’t play with it^^
The Fon Liberator will be a Fonera with a USB port to connect an external USB hard drive.

run a squid proxy off the hard drive as well, or some other proxy server, help speed up page loads and repetitive downloads.
