Best router

[Briles]

Hi Guys
Wots the best wireless router for a subbed broadband modem, so I can use a second PC in another room. Best in terms of ease of use and cheaper better.

avoid the belkin stuff cheap and nasty signal quality is rubbish im using a 4 port mentor one which is great easy set up aswell literally plug and play

I just got a netgear, easy to setup and sound to use

Agree, in my opinion belkin is crap, go with netgear, linksys. I personally love linksys as they are easy and reliable

Which linksys m8 ? My Artisan has a wireless card in there waiting.

I would go for any of these

1 - has speed boost but you need the compatable wireless card to take advantage of this, i.e. a linksys card

Or the previous model

Thanks again, pls wait there, just checking the card on't other pc, be right back m8.

Hope you still there Capdan, the card is a Broadcom 802.11g network adaptor, sorry for the delay !

 

[capdan]

Sorry I missed you, that card will work correctly with any wireless g router, you may as well go for the previous model

As I say all will work fine with your hardware, if you wanted to go for the router with the speed enhancer then you would have to change the wireless card for a different type. personally I wouldn't bother

Hope this helps

Thanks again Capdan, I placed the order through amazon earlier this morning. There was only 8 quid difference for the speedier one so I bought that knowing it is of no real benefit at this time. All I need now is a 37'' LCD TV which I'll wait and see wot happens after christmas in the sales. Appreciate your help m8, have a merry xmas and a great new year.
