Like others have said this is a good, all round router with inbuilt ADSL modem and firewall. If you want to connect multiple computers in your house or small office, this router is something you should definetly consider. It's sleek and slim, very attractive and sits neatly on your desk or out of the way, depending on where you'd like to put it.

The lights on the front can be a bit irritating if you've got the router nearby but this isn't too bad and other routers are worse culprits. This is more the case if you happen to find yourself working in dim light, but otherwise I wouldn't put too much emphasis on the frontal lights. They're OK!

The control panel from the router, which you can log in to via a local IP address is easy to use although I would have liked more security options and settings but you can't complain for the price.

It does need rebooting occasionally (especially if you keep the router on at all times). If you get the chance to switch it off for a while, do this because it keeps everything in good working order. I wouldn't rely on this router for mission critical tasks but it's perfect for home/small office environments.

Just enough information here to be helpful but more information, e.g.. what does a router do, what is the installation process, system requirements, speod of connection, etc, would have warranted a higher rating. If you substantially update this review please let me know and I'll look at it again.
