cheap router (adsl) with modem and QOS

VeNT · 10 Jul 2008 at 09:46

any suggestions? I've a DG834 V2 atm and the QOS doesn't do anything for our VoIP. we've already got the office covered using AP so don't mind having no wireless etc.
other than that we don't really care about the features!

comments wellcome

or am I better off with a WRT54G and tomato?

doesn't the WRT54 have a built in modem?

Netgear GT?

hmm, I like the idea of running tomato tbh, but I want to spend as little cash as poss.
its going to be used in the office so stability is the main concern but cost does play a part (can't afford cisco

)

someone mentioned the Zyxel X550 to me? can't seem to see it for sale anywhere?

Avoid the ZyXELs - awful awful routers :/

Surely an AM200 + WRT54GL isn't a too expensive combination? It'll give you very good stability and performance and the features you require.

this is the boss who's refused to get a server for the last 2 years now, even tho the desktop thats working as a fileserver is getting more and more unstable with every passing day.
the IT budget is basicaly £0 and anything I want to upgrade is a big fight.

tried bullet points, he says "yeah sounds good" then other boss (wife) says no
