That is excellent for wireless, What did you get with the Superhub? I rarly get above 50 on 2.4ghz and 75 on 5ghz. Annoyingly I have mostly 2.4ghz devices so I need to stick with that :-(

The speed test on my signature below was done through wireless using a Buffalo Airstation NFINITI WL-N 300MBPS with the superhub in modem mode on a 60 meg connection. Not so bad for a £25 router ;)

Cheer everyone for your input, in the end i went to the apple store in Sheffield and got an Aiport Extreme.

I like apple product i have a iMac, Macbook Pro, iPad and 2 iPhone so it made sense to go with apple as there products just work!

:)

Hmm don't understand why people keep buying apple stuff when you just pay over the top to have an apple symbol on the kit as inside you can get the same for cheaper...Enjoy your airport sure it will at least be better than the superhub.

Better because the wireless work, better because it wont have to be reset 1 maybe twice a day yes, and better because it has an apple logo!

I like there products, the design, the software and the fact that everything just works!

Yeah they usually package their kit in a beautiful styled case..just that inside it is similar/same components just more expensive, but as far as just works so does my TP-Link and im sure some one ;) will say that about Linksys.

As I said im sure it will work fine for you and you will be very happy with your kit. Enjoy your more stable environment and better performing router!

This is what we are getting ever since we got that new router/modem which is supposed to be giving us 60Mbs

I always find Aberdeen to be bad server to use as speedtest site I find preston or manchester to be much better.

Re: Best Router
 
Could you tell me how to change over to another server, as I have never managed to do that?

Re: Best Router
 
click on the dots on the map, not the big button at the top ;)

Gadgie 20-04-2012 21:28

Re: Best Router
 
Thanks for that, got it, and tried it out, it was the same as the Aberdeen one

Really? I find there is always quite a big difference between sites. Also doing speed test on the same site often gives different results because of load on site etc.
