Does anyone know of a mod for a Linksys BEFSR41 v.2? I tired of having 50k download speeds when i pay for a connection that lets me hav 5 down. Ok, so no one gets that high, but my friends connection in NY gets 500k down on a cable connection and my crappy Canadian ISP only lets me break the 100k barrier when the world is asleep at night.

Unless you're using a combo broadband modem/router (which the BEFSR41 isn't) the speed capping will be happening in the modem, not the router.
However, hacking the modem usually violates the ISP's Terms of Use Agreement; some people who have been caught doing this have been banned from using their ISP's service for life.
Discussions of such hacks are also prohibited in these forums.
