Best Wireless Router?

[BarryC]

Okay, I know it's probably been asked before, but I'm too lazy to search through pages and pages to find the answer. Ive just bought a Dell laptop with built in wireless. I'm using the standard Aolynk DR814 for my PC, but now I want to go wireless. What wireless router works best with the Aolynk?

Thanks in advance,
Barry.

If you are too lazy to do a bit of searching how can you expect people to bother their ****s answering your post?

Okay, just to please Mr.Dub I had a search and I'm still none the wiser. I'm just going to buy the first one I see.

Thanks.

I've got a Netgear DG843G and it was a breeze to set up and has never given me any trouble apart from the wrong login credentials in the manual - the correct credentials were in the appendix. Don't know if they still manufacture them though -you might pick one up.

My advice would be to get a router with a modem - its easier to set up and only a bit more expensive. Just make sure that it supports ADSL2+

Don't mind Mr Dub.

The best wireless router to get is a "Lazy Searcher" manufactured by "GOOGLE"

I use a Belkin F5D7633 ADSL2+ wireless router/modem.

Its so stable b ut there is a caveat. Any that come with the latest firmware are a disaster - v 1.00.17. I had upgraded mine and the router kept locking up but thankfully I found a hack on another forum to revert back to the previous (v 1.00.11) firmware as the web ui won't let you do this.

Those running v 1.00.11 firmware are great.

What about this one?

It doesn't mention ASDL2+ or Windows Vista, can I assume it's compatible?

As always, excuse my ignorance and many thanks for your help.

Barry.

Peats have a very good value offer at the moment Netgear 834N wireless/router/modem with laptop N card for 99 euros.

Thats a very good price for a package like that.

Netgears generally behave well with Smart from posts on here and boards.ie however as always be aware that the behaviour of wireless equipment is notoriously unpredictable - generally works well but...
