Dynamode R-ADSL-C4W-EG - wireless router review
After 16 months of use, my BT voyager 210 router exhibited symptoms of failing i.e. intermittent loss of connection, slow download speed even the ADSL line is clear. I bought this ADSL2/2+ modem from Amazon at £24.99 (good value) for my ADSL connection (I am not with ADSL2 yet) and this router confirmed that my BT voyager router was
on its last leg. After installation, the download speed was back to usual.
What's in the box
In the box it comes with the wireless modem, DC adaptor, microfilter (only one, if you have >1 phone socket in the house, buy more), an ADSL telco cable, an Ethernet/CAT5 patch cable, a CD-ROM (contains only the electronic quick installation guide and a 'must-read' user manual) and a one page, double-sided quick installation guide.

Advantages: great design, great music capabilities Disadvantages: deletes numbers and other media
When i recieved my W580i, i was excited packed with good music features great easy to use menu, good design. Its got an interesting blogging feature as well as a good camera, video camera. It also has an inetersting feature called the Track id record a few seconds of music and TrackI returns the song name, artist and album to your phone within seconds.
However the specs were a little dissapointing as i learned later on. The 12 MB memory lasted only a short time and i had to buy additional memory.
Aside from this it seemed to delete my playlists of it's own accord and some of my phone numbers went missing too. Might have been a fault with my phone in particular however a friend of mine also had the same issues.
My advise would be go for the even better spec W595a its got loads more specs without the bugs. ...
