What ADSL2+ modem-router

Trifid · 6 Apr 2008 at 15:23

My Linksys WAG354G is starting to fail more frequently so it's time to get a new one. This brings to the table the question of which one?

It has to be suitable for upcoming ADSL2+ through either BeThere or BT (Annex M.)
Third party firmware such as Tomato would be great but I don't think there are any ADSL compatible routers for it?
Good QoS control and able to handle bittorrent connections well.
Have a large port forwarding table.
Able to change the internal network IP to 10.0.0.0/24
Not a fan of Netgear/Belkin/D-Link.
Will be on 24/7 so must not overheat.
Prefer it to only need one wireless antennae to fit my current 9dBi TNC and have SMA adapter. Not bothered about anything above 802.11G.

Thanks, Trifid.

You say your not a fan of Netgear, but Netgear DG834 ADSL2+ Modem/Router is a smashing bit of kit. A popular seller on Ocuk, mines on 24/7 no probs.

Get the WRT54GL and something like a Linksys AM200 modem to plug into it. This gives you Tomato and ADSL2+.

This looks the most appealing tbh. Although will have to be a matching modem.
