There doesn't appear to be any decent reviews on this item.
Asus have their own forum with a few entries:-

In the past I used to have a look at the whirlpool forums as I used a
few linksys items and it used to a good source of info.There doesn't
appear to many questions about the 520gC at the moment but it might be
worth asking there as it is a net.au and someone may know of any
peculiarities of it's use in Australia. At one point there was a
firmware upgrade specific to users in Oz.
