DannoSupra Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Whats the ideal router to get these days? i got one PC upstairs connected through Lan Cable and one downstairs connected with Lan cable. Also my Xbox360live is connected through Lan cable. The router that im using now is 'ADDON' and its too strict for my xbox, wont let me chat, challenge people etc I did buy a Netgear router, but being the dumbass that i am, it wasnt ADSL Just after some suggestions Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I've got a Netgear DG834 and it seems pretty good. It's known for being able to hold onto a connection long after most others disconnect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I wouldn't get a get a D-Link , pain in the arse - wouldn't work. The 3COM router was perfect. Netgear are good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supRo Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 Netgear routers are good. But their USB Network adapters are crap IMO. I've had two of those and they lose connection and aren't robust. Their PCMCIA laptop cards are very good though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveK Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Netgear setup wizard is also very good. When I bought mine, I had it configured and working in less than 5 minutes and wireless working / secure in 10 minutes more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
