I would have said the Linksys BEFW11S4 , because both myself and a mate are seperately using one for the exact setup you have (also in Cambridge

), until last week. See my thread here :

It's been working fine for the last 2 years with zero problems, and I'm not certain yet whether it is the router. My mate's bringing his round this weekend to see if mine has gone kaputt.

They're about ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£36 from Amazon or dozens of other places. Another friend in Cambridge has recommended the Netgear WGR614 as a possible replacement if required. He's using a wireless Vaio running XP with it.

You shouldn't need to clone the MAC address - I didn't. Just switch the CM off, plug in the router, switch them on and away you go.
