    Wireless Router

    The one you recommended is pretty reasonably priced too!

     

    Yup, that one's not the "best" available, but it's of the latest generation of products with good speed and range, so good value for money.

     

    How are linksys to set up though? Computers are evil and I don't have a clue about them! :blush:

     

    I've never had a problem with setups as I have a techie background, so my opinion on ease of use is probably not the best to go by as I think they're all easy to setup ;)

     

    But they all come with "wizards" these days to assist with setup, plus Linksys have a good amount of support resources on their website:

    Personally, I wouldn't think you'd have any trouble, but perhaps a non-techie person here with experience of Linksys products could venture an opinion?

    Linksys are probably the best technically. But then you'd expect nothing less from the company whose equipment keeps most of the internet running (Linksys is Cisco's consumer brand).

     

    Netgear are usually pretty good, although they have had some poor/unreliable products in their line-up (but then, everyone has/does).

     

    D-Link and Belkin are fair-to-middling depending on model and required usage (but quite often unreliable and cr@p).

     

    Anything proprietry provided by an ISP (e.g. BT HomeHub and Orange LiveBox) is kit built by the lowest bidder using the lowest quality components built to a fairly low specification.

     

    Just my personal experience/opinions mind you... :innocent:

     

    If I had to recommend one it would be:
