Advantages: Good cable,
Disadvantages: Quite pricey

...Network cables are maybe not the first thing you think of when considering a network but they should be. You can have a super fast router but if your cable isnt up to it, then why bother. Belkin are the standard setters in the network cable world. If you want top quality then you buy belkin. So if your considering sharing an internet connection to play games etc then you really need decent cable. However, if like me you only share your connection for browsing and downloading, then you don't really need this kind of high quality cable. I personally have cable running that I bought for £2.14 for a 15m cable (that includes the connectors on the end). For internet browsing etc this is fine. In conclusion, if you need speed and low ping times then belkin is the way to go. You can even use the snagless cable to allow easier running... Read review

Advantages: fast, allows shared broadband, different lengths, cheap
Disadvantages: none

...its bright red! Since its a Belkin it also has their life time warranty so if it should ever have a malfunction they will replace it for free, this is always good to know. The price of this item isnt that much i paid £15 for mine from p.c world though some cost more and some cost less all depends on the bandwith of the cable and the length. You can buy this product from places such as p.c world and dixions, or try www.freewebs.com/myshoppingmall here there is a link to dixions and p.c world so happy shopping... Read review

Advantages: Good build quality, brand name
Disadvantages: A bit pricey.

...Okay, so before everyone gets too excited at the prospect of reading a review about a network cable, I'll bring you all back down to Earth and try to convince you why this one is so great... If you've bought computer peripherals before, you will probably be familiar with Belkin, who are particularly well-known for their USB products. Belkin make all sorts of cables, including a variety of ethernet network cables. This is a Cat 5 standard network cable (coloured red, but you can get it in many other colours, including black, grey, yellow, green, blue etc). One of the major problems with network cables is their tendency to snag when bent through a small radius, and because of the way the individual wires are twisted around eachother inside the cable, this can lead to network errors. The Belkin cable claims to be snagless, and whilst I... Read review

Advantages: compact, good front-panel display, wall-mountable
Disadvantages: temperamental web interface, lots of virtual knobs, bells and whistles

...casing that has wall-mount holes, and claims to push super-fast wireless networking to a radius of 425m from the unit. And it comes with a Manufacturers Lifetime Warranty (sic). Here's how I managed to get it going to accommodate my need to work from a room at the very opposite end of the house from where the ADSL connection was installed... What you get for your money ----------------------------------------- The silver-topped Belkin box looks attractive, with HIGH performance being the most obvious feature on the front. One side-panel gives you three easy steps to get you started - 1. Connect; 2. Configure; 3. Set Up. The other side-panel shows the technical specs, and the back panel explains clearly what's in the box, what it does and the way the unit communicates to you in blue (or amber if something's amiss!) icons what's happening...

Advantages: Good case
Disadvantages: Terrible product, and poor after sales care

...; then implying that Royal Mail pulled a fast one and kept the item; taking no responsibility for the item. Granted I'm only £10 out of pocket, but I'm a great lover of principles. The Belkin Sport Armband comes in black, grey, or white; it's made of Neoprene. There is a plastic screen cover, and a little place to put keys or cash.While the case is a good solid item, the armband itself is connected with the smallest patch of Velcro Belkin could find. As a case protector the item is fine, but when it comes to the part that actually goes round your arm, I cannot help that a belt style strap might be better even though I can imagine this having a similar issue. The Armband is available pretty much anywhere that sells the iPod Touch, and is about £8-£14 though I'd look at other ranges than this. For the record, I have given up running. Spencer Hawken...

Advantages: Allows you to listen to your mp3 player in your car
Disadvantages: Very Poor Quality Of Sound!

...worked fine in my friend's car. I have a Y-Reg Volkswagen Polo, which has a side-load cassette mechanism... so don't buy this if you have a Volkswagen! I used to have a Sony cassette adapter, which worked perfectly, but sadly it broke, giving the reason why I bought this one. The durability of the Belkin one looks even worse. It is very delicate, any slight touch to the wire or the portable device causes bad sound quality. If you want my advice... if you have a modern head unit in your car, it will probably have aux inputs at the back. So buy an aux to 3.5mm jack cable, and connect it to your head unit. This surely would produce better sound quality. Anyway, the Belkin case holder which fits my iPod to my dashboard that came with the cassette adapter is great. Pity I just can't listen to it :( Overall, it's a pretty useful device if your... Read review
