Re: need a new wireless n router.

thanks guys for your advice on the following routers, the one that died on me was a belkin F5D8233-4, I bought it mid october 2008 from play.com in jersey, I contacted belkin for technical help after spending a couple of hours with the staff,they told me to return it and they would send me a replacement as it is still under the warranty, I called them this morning and was told that it is on it way and should get it by friday, will let you all know when I recieved it.

That's a good result then. Just for info my 635 is (apparently) guaranteed for 10 years, to my surprise on reading the small print! I expect things will have moved on a bit by then. LOL! Hope it turns out ok for u.

you have lifetime warrantee on your belkin so use that I would say and save a couple of pennies.
