Review of Belkin ADSL Modem with Wireless-G Router wireless router

Great Multimedia Wireless Router from Belkin

Advantages: Reliable, Fast, Easy to configure, Lots of features, USB for sharing drives
Disadvantages: Bit expensive, Not full speed with every machine

...INTRO The Belkin N+ router is one of the higher end (consumer) wireless modem router offerings from Belkin. It cost me £85 from PC World, but can probably be found for a bit less if you shop online. The Cable version costs a little less. Reason I bought this one was because two PCs in the house with wireless cards kept losing the wireless connection when I was using a Linksys router (my own PCs / laptops were fine though!). I replaced that with a second hand Belkin, which worked fine but unfortunately, a power cut killed the wireless on it. Liking the performance of that cheaper Belkin router, I decided to stick with Belkin and get this one! DESIGN The router looks very stylish and stands up tall rather than laid down flat. It doesn't appear to have been designed to be laid down flat like many other routers, which may be to...

Netgear DG834PN Wireless ADSL Modem Router

Advantages: Facilities, easy set up, lights(!), stability
Disadvantages: Some backwards compatibility issues, lack of web executable filtering

...The Netgear DG834PN is the latest version of the DG834 and combines an ADSL modem with a wireless router and 4 port switch. In plain English, this plugs in your phone socket and allows one or more PCs to share the connection via either a wired or wireless link. The modem part is ADSL2+ ready and should work with even the fastest ISP offerings out there which as at Dec 2006 are around 12mbps in the UK. The setup wizard worked flawlessly and apart from the username and password, worked everything else out for itself and had the DG834PN up and running in a couple of minutes. As with most similar devices, further configuration is done via a web interface. The wireless section supports 802.11b and 802.11g as well as Netgear's own 802.11 Super G variant offering 108Mbps. The unit features 6 internal Antennas which constantly reconfigure...

Belting Belkin Router!

Advantages: Fairly easy to set up, easy to use, reliable, looks good.
Disadvantages: Bandwidth Innacurate.

...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...

Review of Belkin N1 Vision Wireless Modem Router - wireless router

Belkin N1 Vision MIMO Router

Advantages: Looks, Innovation, Ease Of Use
Disadvantages: Price

...I recently had the misfortune of having to swap my cable wireless router, I say misfortune as the last time I had to do it it took me nearly three days to get everything back up and running the way it was before, so when my Linksys router decide to stop functioning you can imagine my dismay. However when I purchased this product, mainly for the looks if I am to be completely honest, all my fears just fell away. The router is based in our main room, so has always been on show, but with this router I have no embarassment in showing it off. It does stand out and when you have it on the clock setting then it just looks like a very stylish digital clock, and whenever we have people round it is always the first thing they ask about. Setup: Setting up the router is so easy. Un pack from the box, plug in ethernet cable from modem...

Advantages: A great way to network up your house and share the internet
Disadvantages: A pain to set up with cabling

...For a family to own a PC at home is almost second nature today. To own 2 or 3 different computers is nothing unusual.

Buffalo WBMR-G54 wireless router - a real buffalo?

Advantages: Reasonable price, easy to use, lots of advanced settings
Disadvantages: installation firewall issue, signal strengh only reasonable

...I bought this router from a local Argos shop at an emergency situation i.e. I want it now and therefore not at the best price - 49.99. Reason: My all singing and all dancing Dynamode R-ADSL-C4W-EG - wireless router had lost its main function, 'internet connectivity' after a month or so of continuous use (see my other review, now updated, for details). All is left is wireless communication i.e. useless. The return of this router back to Amazon caused me a week (lots of emails + recorded delivery + check that the refund includes the recorded delivery etc) For Argos, there is an obvious advantage - if there is something wrong with it, I just take it back for a refund/replacement on the same day. This router comes with detail instructions (step-by-step) for installation however it does not cater for the presence of a firewall...

NetGear DG834N Wireless Router

Advantages: Great stable router with great range and speed
Disadvantages: None found yet

...Picking a router is pretty difficult these days. There are an awful lot of routers out there and it is very, very difficult to choose the right one for you. The obvious things to consider are ? Price ? Ease of use/Ease of set up ? Speed ? Range ? After sales support The more technical would also consider the functionality offered. The DG834N ticks the right boxes in each of these areas. Out of the box the router looks rather sleek. It's a white box roughly the same size of a hardback book. Some yellowish flashing lights at the front inform you whether the router is switched on, whether it's connected to the internet, and whether it is transmitting a wireless signal. It also has no external aerials which I'll come back to in a moment. The router comes with the standard 4 Ethernet ports and supports both ADSL and ADSL2+ and as far as I...

ADSL Modem and Router ? the easy option?

Advantages: Router & Modem in one box.
Disadvantages: User interface, documentation, functionality.

...With my last hardware review (of an 802.11g card) I realise I may have lost many readers by simply going in at the deep end? it was appropriate for that review (where only users familiar with wireless networking technology would even consider the purchase) ? but the same can?t be said for this bit of kit which represents one way to take advantage of broadband internet over a standard BT phone line. Here I will attempt a gentle introduction to the benefits of buying a router of specification similar to the Dlink 504T ? then I?ll expand on the specific shortcomings of this particular device. The DLink 504T is a combined 4-port Ethernet switch and ADSL modem sporting features for DHCP, DNS, NAT / PAT and Firewall. I consider it mid-priced at about £55 (more expensive than an unbranded unit with a Connexant chipset, slightly dearer than...
