The Bay Networks BayStack Access Node Hub (ANH) routers cost-effectively connect small remote offices and ensure network availability while minimizing network-operating costs. BayStack ANH configurations integrate the function of both a router and a hub into one platform, simplifying equipment and management requirements. The serial interfaces provide remote office network design flexibility. For mission-critical applications, they facilitate Dial Backup and Bandwidth-on-Demand support. In addition, Dial-on-Demand functionality enables ANHs to extend network availability on an as-needed basis to small remote sites, minimizing WAN service costs. Optionally, Synchronous interfaces can be used for SDLC, allowing both IBM SNA and multiprotocol LAN traffic over one consolidated WAN link to the internetwork backbone. The ANH easily integrates with the enterprise internetwork by supporting Bay Networks Routing Services (BayRS), which provides support for all major LAN and WAN protocols. The microprocessor, used in the ANH's highly integrated design, easily maintains high forwarding and filtering rates regardless of the number of protocols and network interfaces used - even when processing SNMP management inquiries.
Advantages: ease of setup,reliable connection Disadvantages: not the fastest on the market
...When looking to go wireless in the computer world it is an absolute minefield when it comes to wireless routers/modems. I sat at my latop(tethered to the telephone socket with wires) scouring google for write ups about this router and that router when i came across this one. Now this is rated as being the best selling router/modem in the UK and has been for some time. I think i paid around £40 from ebuyer.com. I chose it because of the fact its reasonably priced. Its a good trustworthy brand and it seemed to come up to scratch on speed.
Upon opening the box the installation was very simple indeed. I just followed the instructions that came with the router and hey prsto i was wireless on my laptop.Software is easy to install and self explanatory. Its not the fastest band of router on the market but for what i needed it was ample...

...We'd wanted to upgrade our router for a while to cope with Rich playing on his Xbox online mainly as we kept getting lag, which was especially apparent if I was also browsing the net (which I generally was) even to the point of Rich being disconnected mid game. He was getting annoyed with it so when we saw this router on offer at ebuyer.com for £69.99 (but has since gone back up to its previous price of £89.99); I jumped at the chance to get it and now we have it, I thought it was worth writing a review about, so here we are!
My review will be based on my experience of the router, and not a full technological break down of what it is capable of etc as that is readily available online from the manufacturer and would probably bore most people to tears anyway.
The first thing I notice when opening the box is how big the router is...

...The Linksys WAG160N N300 is an ADSL2+ wireless modem router, meaning it has a a modem built in. It is for use with BT Internet connections rather than for use with a Cable broadband connection (i.e. Virgin) although a Cable version is also available. It?s an ADSL2 router, which means it supports the newer ADSL standard, which could mean faster transfer speeds although this really depends on your line quality, distance from Exchange, service with ISP, etc. The router currently costs £74.99 from PC World but a bit less at £59.99 on their website. I bought mine about 8 months ago on Ebuyer for around £55.
IN THE BOX
You receive two ADSL filter
s, RJ11 cable, user manual, manual and software CD, power adapter and lastly, the router itself.
THE ROUTER ITSELF
One thing I quite like about the router is that it looks quite...
