Excellent piece of kit


Can't beleive all those people who failed to read the spec for the router before buyng and then moaning its not got PPPoA when they got it home. D'uh! Anyway, that's my gripe over, onto the kit - it is excellent and resolves the issues I was having with two previous wireless routers as I was having drop outs, which I summised was down to me having so much wireless stuff in my home (ie, DECT phone, mobiles, etc). Installed this router and it has crashed once - well impressed. I've got wireless security on the max setting, and no issues with speed as a result. Can walk alway around the house with laptop and stays connected. Got this from PC World, which was only about £10 more than buying online, but no P&P to pay, and dead easy to return if any issues.
