No reason why not unless the port on the router isn't capable, have you tried it out? BTW my cat's name is Smudge, it's quite common apparently

Oh and

thanks graham ,no i havent , my brother uses one with his 2mb service and is very pleased with it, i just wondered should my service being the faster service make any difference? sorry if im being a bit thick but im a computer philistine im afraid

I have the older WRT54G and that gives me the full 10Mb on both wireless and wired. The WRT54GL should be fine.
