Hi lodore, I have a Netgear WGR614 for two years now and I never experience any problems with it. True Firewall and easy to configure. See some feature below. Hope it helps. "NETGEAR's 54 Mbps Wireless Router lets you experience the blazing-fast network wireless speeds of 54 Mbps. These higher speeds make it a snap to web surf, download large files, videoconference, stream high-quality digital movies, MP3 music and photos and play online games. This wireless router also works with 802.11b wireless products so you can use it with your existing 802.11b devices and your new 54 Mbps 802.11g devices. Auto-sensing chooses the fastest connections possible on your 10/100 Mbps wide area network and four local area network ports. True Firewall (SPI) advanced security provides maximum protection from professional hackers. URL blocking and e-mail alerts provide parents with controls to limit access to inappropriate web sites and monitor children's access. Simple to install, you just follow the cues shown on your PC screen and your router will be up and running in no time. Smart Wizard auto-detects and configures for the best ISP connection, while UPnP™ (Universal Plug and Play) makes it easy to use your computers, gaming consoles and other client devices — wireless and Ethernet — for gaming, instant messaging, and other applications."
cool thanks. i can get a linksys wireless n router for about £80. i just want one that is reliable and has some tweaking in the firewall etc. i need a reliable wireless connection for the wii and want reliable connetection for the pc so i can surf the internet with no cut outs lol it needs to be a modem as well since its replacing my modem router that i use atm. its a shame the buffalo routers dont have modems in them because i like the buffalo routers lodore
ok, here you go..... not a clue how much they are, but both are 'top-standard' of routers, check reviews and prices. just a couple suggestions. for adsl2+ routers: 1. Belkin N1 Wireless Router 802.11n 2. Netgear DG834PN 108Mbps Rangemax Wireless ADSL2 3. Belkin 7633 try and find out. if you need a cable router, i suggest linksys WRT54G series, very reliable and fast.
thanks Chris i need wireless for my nintendo wii and i will probaly use ethernet for my pc. this might have to wait thou since i just got an email from diskeeper they gave me a coupon code to get diskeeper 2007 from the europe store for the same price as the us store! as an upgrade from 10 pro if diskeeper 2007 pro premier is cheap i will get that lol lodore
