New pc router time

by MarkV6 » Sun Feb 07, 2010 1:45 pm

Been having internet problems over the weekend (slow page loading, server not found etc etc) so after many restarts/power cycles, I disconnected the Belkin (model f5d7231-4) and plugged the modem straight into the pc. It's all working ok now but obviously I've lost the routers NAT firewall.

The belkin had problems with my xbox wireless adaptor, and the wii wouldn't connect either, so I'm looking at getting one of these:
Netgear WNR2000

Got some good reviews on the Argos site as well.

Should be ok for me, I think.
I used to own this Calibra...
I now own this one.
