Advantages: Fast, good range, powerful, not too expensive for what you get
Disadvantages: none so far

This is a wireless network router whih you can use with either a cable modem or a DSL modem. I've owned mine for ages - it orginally cost me £76 and, though that's quite a lot compared to some routers, this one is really powerful and I guess you get what you pay for. This router doesn't come with a modem, as with most of them, but, like the majority of ISPs I suspect, mine supplied me with one as part of the subscription. The signal is perfect all ...
...bars out of five on the display on my laptop. This is despite the fact that the router is unhelpfully located in the study which seemd logical but is in fact right at one end of the house, so it's impressive that we are still getting signal right at the other end above the garage. The router is very fast too; I'm really pleased with as well: I can download a half-hour TV programme from 4OD in about a minute, and my teenage son can play on-line games ... Read review

Disadvantages: Short working life, loses settings regularly

...had to go to the D-Link website and guess my way through another set of ambiguous questions. Three times in total. The site was neither intuitive or helpful in any other way. But now at least I had a working wireless access point/router. Woo hoo! I installed the antennae on my daughter's PC with no probs. Thank heavens for small mercies. I managed to access the net on her PC and also my notebook. Problem is that over the next few months, I had to ...
...aren't even that will have no chance of getting this product of the ground. In short, save your dosh and buy any brand except D-Link... And I will shortly be sending the D-Link router on a blind date with a large lump hammer I keep in my shed... ... Read review

Advantages: Easy to install with a little help from guy on phone at D Link

Advantages: Free surfing all over Europe
Disadvantages: Not really the big money spinner I though it would be

...You sign up to the La Fonera website and from there you can either become an internet sharer or a money earner ( I use that last term loosely). If you opt to share your internet then anyone in the world who has a Fon router can log on to your internet with their user name and password and surf for free, when within range. Or you can use your router as a means to make some cash, as it works as a hotspot for passing internet surfers. The idea is brilliant ...
...along with my router. The La Fonera website often run competitions to win things, to participate you just need to keep your Fon on, so thats easy. I think for travelers going around europe this is a great item as it means you can get free internet access across europe, you can look up hotspots before you go and note down the street names so you know where to log on. ...
