    Question Recommend an ADSL2+ Modem Router ?

    After a bit of research I'm hoplessly confused.
    My current router is showing signs of irritability, dropping connections both on WiFi and to the Exchange.
    I'm looking for an ADSL2+ modem Router. It must have at least 4-Gigabit switched ports (PC, NAS and Homeplugs take up 3 already) and be fast and reliable. on the WiFi we can have up to 5 phones, tablet and laptop.
    Budget is approx £100, and should be easy enough to setup for a networking noob like myself.

    Cheers

    get a secondhand draytec .. i'm glad i did ...
    What does it matter now if men believe or no?
    What is to come will come. And soon you too will stand aside,
    To murmur in pity that my words were true
    (Cassandra, in Agamemnon by Aeschylus)

    I'd second a draytek if you can get it for the right price. I have a 2820.

    Re: Recommend an ADSL2+ Modem Router ?

    Quick update. Bought a Billion 7800n 2nd hand. Works fine so far, has a LOT of features that I need to get to grips with but Im getting 16Mbs down and 0.6mbs up, before any tweaking on ADSL2+.
