Surly they can't still be supplying G routers?

Mine came the other day for my 50mb, i've took the USB thing out of it and plugged this into a PC that i don't use that often and the router is still in the box as i have no use for it.

They now supply both G and N routers and it is up to the customer which one they get as the is a fee for the N router even when the G is free.

Didn't realise there was a fee for the N. Luckily mine was free, good job as i don't actually need it.

well its not actually free, its included in the setup fee for 50mb

Luckily i didn't have to pay that either then. I was on a Pilot Scheme late last year, so got it all for free and just over three months use for free too.

I agreed to keep the 50mb service so they sent me my router as we didn't originally get these for the trial, just the modem.

Well mine just arrived, it is the G router, it came already set up for WPA, pity they didnt give me the password, I had to run the supplied CD before I could log in and change what I wanted to.

As for the firmware looking at the router pages there's nothing on there to say its a VM router, is that normal or are they shipping them with netgears own firmware now?

Look on the sticker underneath if it says SSID is virgin and Passphrase is password then it has Virgin firmware
