currently on sky with what i believe is a rebadged netgeart 834 router which we've had for the last few years.

now i have no problems at all with ignoring skys T&C's in the quest for a slightly faster connection. so thats not an issue


my questions are.

Can i change my modem/router out for a shiny new (better) one? i've already acquired my login details for my sky router so dont think thats going to be a problem.

what would people recommend as a decent bit of kit to buy?

currently have 3 desktops hardwired and 2 laptops an ipad and a ps3/apple tv connecting via wireless

will i be likely to get a bit more speed changing the unit out (in terms of connection rather than wifi as i'd expect a tin of beans with an antenna attached would give better wireless range than what i currently have.

can something be had that will allow me to tinker with SNR's and the like?
 
i'd rather not faff about flashing my sky modem :)

if it all goes belly up i'm internetless :(
