I've updated the firmware on my router to the latest version of [[http://www.polarcloud.com/tomato][Jonathan Zarate's Tomato]] firmware plus [[http://touristinparadise.blogspot.com/2008/04/linksys-wrt54gl-routers-improving.html][Rodney Chua's SpeedMod]] patches. That seems to squeeze out the best performance from my Linksys <nop>WRT54GL:

<nop>VirtualBox is at 3.1.2 but I just cannot get a stable host system with the 2.6.31* Karmic kernels. I also think setting the network adapter to use the virtual Intel PRO/1000 device causes instability too. There are no problems with a 2.6.31 kernel and <nop>VirtualBox on my backup server. That may be down to it being a 32bit host install - this is on a 64bit Athlon II machine - but I still can't pin down a cause.

Still getting the occasional page allocation error even with the old kernel from Jaunty. Updated [[http://www.virtualbox.org/][VirtualBox]] to 3.1.0 without any improvement, so trying again with 3.1.2.
