I recently replaced the Netgear router that Virgin supplied when I signed up for the 50mb service 18 months ago - I now have a Netgear WNDR3700, which is working extremely well.
I understand that I will soon be able to upgrade to the 100mb service, as part of which I have read that Virgin supply a combined router/modem.
I am reluctant to abandon the WNDR3700 (although I do not know how good the new combined router/modem would be), so my question is, would my existing Virgin modem and separate WNDR3700 router still be usable with the 100mb service, or is the new combined router/modem required for the 100mb service to work?
Thanks.
