First of all I must congratulate Zoom for such a fantastic product. Out of all my experiences with wireless/wired routers including; Netgear, Belkin and Linkysys (Cisco), I have found the ZoomX6WirelessADSLrouter to be the most user-friendly router I have ever used.

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.

Advantages: Reliability and value for money. Disadvantages: Operating temperature.
In my opinion this broadband ADSLrouter is one of the best on the market considering its price.
