box on their site at the same price.
sorry i cant be more help right now, you do need to find a local shop other than
pcworld (even argos's latest catalog is very weak and lacking non DSL kit)
my local shop seems rather low on 11G+ 108mbit right now but even the cheap
11g 54mbit " says it does 100mbit in the popup if you click it,
ofcourse to use that speed to the other machine(s) in your lan you would need
same brand or compatable cards as already stated.
Price PerInc.VATUnit34.99 5 Off32.78 20 Off29.08
as always no garantees , but the popup says "Broadband Wireless Router"
so maybe you can find a local shop near you or ask at mine

iv had lots of no/cheap brand
www.peakhardware.com hardware and jetway work just fine over the years so no problem for me or others that took the chance.
hope you get sorted.
p.s anyone interested , it seems the new 11N (300Mbps over-the-air)
kit is starting to ship
although not finalised full spec yet
""At the March 2006 meeting, the IEEE 802.11 Working Group sent the 802.11n Draft to its first letter ballot, which means that the 500+ 802.11 voters get to review the document and suggest bugfixes, changes and improvements."
