Netgear DGN2000 is brilliant.

Yep, Netgear all the way - in fact, anything except for Belkin... useless pieces of junk IMHO. |

Only the cheap D-Link has been worse than the Netgear DGN I have. I'll be going back to AVM Fritz!Box for my next router. With the integrated analogue and ISDN telephone connections, the upper model do VOIP to landline and normal telephone to VOIP into the bargain. |

Was that in Germany? You use AnnexB over there, so the firmware isn't the same as in the UK where we use AnnexA. |

The configuration was very limited. One of the things that the AVM and other routers I had allowed was to set up multiple time based blocking policies - youngest daughter should only have 4 hours internet access a day, which we set up to be a couple of hours after school and a couple of hours in the evening. With the Netgear, we had to leave it as a single 4 hour block, as it only allowed one time rule to be applied. The AVM range is also offers a lot more features for the money. |

Need to know if it is cable or ADSL. I'm guessing cable if it's Virgin, in which case something like: http://www.ebuyer.com/282257-tp-link-tl ... l-wr300kit Important thing is the N300 spec - it really makes a difference to the wireless. But be sure it's cable before buying. |
