D-Link 'n' routers have an 11 year warranty, and again, it's still protected by fit-for-purpose laws whatever you claim the warranty period to be.
You do realise that your post was a perfect sounding board and the comment was for readers in general.

All equipment supplied by Virginmedia including equipment like a router with a fee do not come under any selling regulations as they are not actually purchased.

As to Netgear or D Link supporting the routers after the 2 year lease period it is unlikely due to them having embedded Virginmedia firmware so that may nullify the 11 year warranty from D Link not I personally would ever use a router of that age..
