So, the erlite router did work for me up to now.  The board
started sound like a bee buzz and clearly became a recycle bin
material.  But it did work just fine for more than 4 years now!

So, I'm back at the original question.  What hardware to buy today
for a little home router?  What did the erlite router users upgrade
to over the years?  Should I just buy the same thing again and
try to simply replug the usb stick?  Any thoughts?
