The CPU in the Archer is far weaker than the one in the WDR4900 (in fact the WDR4900 has one of the most powerful CPUs in a consumer router. It's one of the reasons i went with it).

The 4900s are a bit hard to find now. I'm keeping an eye out though

Edit to add: Badnbusy - After looking I don't think the Archers are all green LED either

Just an update on this one.

I managed to buy a WDR4900 from Germany via ebay and it's been by far the best router I've ever owned. It doesn't slow down or crash with whatever I throw at it, and it's been online and connected for well over a month. Very pleased.

Wireless power is adjustable and it's got green LEDs too
