What do u guys think about this router, i know i'm late and it came out months ago, but how does it compete against others(linksys, netgear, etc..) What other routers are comparable to the security of the z100G?

So, what is <Stateful Program Firewall> ? Is this an old StatefulPacketFilter or something new?

What ever you do dont fall for the comparision sheet, also note in that sheet they have only stated one model from each other manufacturer. I am sure there are routers out there that will do everything (as listed) that the ZA Router will and on the other hand it wouldn't surprise me if this router is really a rebadged Netgear.

yah ur right Albinoni, most have at least the same features except the VStream Gateway Antivirus - real-time scanning...the popular routers don't have an AV. This make it a hardware AV since its on the router instead of the computer. Like the for example: router is a hardware firewall, and computer has software firewall..

Gateway AV is the exact term ;)
