I run 3 WRTs to create a large zone and mine works a treat. so should yours.

Regarding the router, I believe there were two WRTs where the older version could be updated with homebrew firmware, but you couldn't do the same with the later ones. Just find it odd that other devices work fine, but the tablet hiccups --- that's why I brought up the coffee shop example.

Hey guys,
I frequently experience issues trying to connect to web sites on my N800 --- most frequently, the "connecting" status bar will just sway back and forth with no activity. Sometimes, I just click the "full screen" button and then the web site will connect. Other times, efforts are futile.

In any case, this does present a solution should I be out roaming in the world and come across this issue with a router which I have no control over.

The linksys54g(s) should have good support for wireless multimedia/powersaving mode. You should look to upgrading your firmware to the most recent release ( be it official linksys, dd-wrt, or your flavor ). I have run into crappy routers that sucked my battery dry in a matter of 2 hours compared to my usual 8-12 of casual browsing with IM on. Nothing can be done there short of going into offline mode.
The other item that was never mentioned was that adblock can also cause weird slowdowns on some sites. I switched to a hosts file and the floppy moose blocking css file with much better performance. That on top of my tweaks ( already listed ) give a reasonable boost to the stock chinook MicroB ( can't wait for a rebuild from the newer ff3 tree ).
