Another D-Link, the DI-634M - no real reason, I just liked the look of it :)

 

We should soon be getting ADSL... but it will be no more than 2MB :( as work are paying for a new line and ADSL I'm considering still getting ADSL on our current line and bonding the two together.

 

Looks like it'll cost rather a lot for a router capable though :(

Unless your ISP supports ADSL bonding, I wouldn't bother, otherwise you end up throwing random packets down the two links and some systems can get a little confused such as streaming media and gaming servers...

Fantastic lads... thanks for your advice... right ADSL routers.... ;)

 

It goes against all my geeky IT training but PC World are very cheap at the moment - my D-Link was £20 cheaper there and I've just ordered a PCI card that is half the price of anywhere else. I have to drive to Barnsley to collect it but you can't have everything.

 

They have a special on Netgear stuff I think.

Cheers for that fella.... but I think 'Big Business' procurement might have it covered! I'm not paying!! ;) :D :p

Well it'll be BT business, but don't know if they support multi-link PPP bonding.

 

The Draytek 3300 looks a good bit of kit... but £400.
