hello all

can anyone recommend me a wireless router:

i have been recomended a netgear dg834g by yewen any dfeedback on this would be great and others as well.

thanks
 
A router for cable or ADSL?

If ADSL, then I've not had many problems with the DG834G's, but they can be a bit iffy if your SNR isn't too hot - shouldn't be an issue if you're not on Max.

So it's ADSL.


IPStream Max = "up to 8Mbps, with rate adaption et al".

the speed is 250kbps

You do mean 250 kilobits per second as in home250, yes?

i,m not sure i know what you mean about snr

Look at the FAQ for an explanation of SNR, and look at whatever kit you've got already. You might be able to extract an SNR (Margin) from it (somehow, there's instructions for some devices in said FAQ) - if it varies significantly over the course of 24 hours, you might have issues.
If home250's all you can get, then there's a good chance your line's marginal as it is.

p.s i know about the speed :)

Huh? :confused:
