What router modem do you use
As im new to broadband I have just brought my first router modem I decided on net gear are they good or bad
I ve bought Dg834g router and Wg511t pci card paid £97 Inc vat is that a reasonable price to pay
:erm: :erm:

NetGear get good write ups, I went for LinkSys cos I got a WRT54G and 54g PCI card for £78 IncVAT which at the price was top. I was previously on TrendNET!!! (No I'd never heard of them either) works though and 11b signal is stronger by 50% than the LinkSys

Some of the netgears are good, some bad, simple way to test it is to download "All Seeing Eye" do a refresh on a popular game, like Medal of Honor for example, if after a little while it kills your internet connection, you've got one of their poorer models, the Netgear DM602 constantly downs the connection when you do this as it can't handle the amount of packets incoming.

Same here. Although I did have fun and games when I upgraded the firmware on the router. I forgot to make a note of the Mac address to clone, didn't have the Network card I'd cloned it off anymore and had forgotton my PID on the Set top box...

The problem came because when I upgraded the firmware, the router wiped it's configuration..
