I was just getting ready to submit that and saw you had it covered!

"How about the ability to differentiate between 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz connections in the "Attached Devices" pane (which differentiates between Wired and Wireless)."

The way mine (V1.0.0.22_1.0.17) appears to work, is it checks with the router first, to see if the name is registered locally (LAN). If not, it goes to WAN.

DNS Servers . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1

C:\Users\me>nslookup google.com
Server: UnKnown
Address: 192.168.1.1

DNS request timed out.
timeout was 2 seconds.

Non-authoritative answer:
Name: google.com
Addresses: 173.194.33.0
173.194.33.1
173.194.33.2
173.194.33.3
173.194.33.4
173.194.33.5
173.194.33.6
173.194.33.7
173.194.33.8
173.194.33.9
173.194.33.14

I take it you're looking to bypass the local DNS entirely?

Absolutly need IPV6 RD (rapid deployment) support. As many others, my ISP is going this way. Linksys and DLink do support it.

Can you explain how it doesn't do this? I see the option to disable the router PIN. Should it do something else?

How about a way to "override" the Live Parental Controls from something other than a Windows or Mac computer?

Shouldn't be too hard to set up a web-based login page where someone could "identify" themselves as a valid user so they are subject to less strict Parental Controls. Or iOS/Android apps.

Another one: how about support for ExFAT for files >4GB without having to use NTFS (which is read-only anyway)?

Can't believe this isn't in here, but....MORE than 20 port forwarding rules...

Linux software to access ReadyShare printer (does anyone know if this is possible)?

Agreed, way too few

What number do you consider would be enough, and what other home grade or small business grade router do you know of that exceeds 20 rules by a significant margin?
