Our current router which was supplied by plusnet is starting to crash quite a bit, overheat, drop connections, its quite old and frankly its time for a new one.
(will find out name of it later, too much stuff in the way at the moment)
I'm looking for a integrated modem router for use with our broadband (ADSL?) 16MB unlimited connection from PlusNet.
features looking for -
Gigabit ports - would be nice, our 6 PCs are currently on a 4 port gigabit switch and 2 in the router 100mb ports.
wireless - couldn't care less, don't use it, don't have any wireless devices. need to be able to turn it off.
easy to setup - needs an easy to understand interface.
many connections - me and my sister do quite a bit of online gaming, also quite a lot of HD movie/youtube/iplayer and similar watching. all at the same time.
budget - less than £100 or thereabouts
found so far.
TP-Link-TD-W8970 £46.98
was also looking at the ASUS routers, but they seem to have no modems and/or to expensive because of the wireless support.
one feature that's throwing me that's mentioned on the ASUS's is Powerful Online Multitasking up to 300,000 Data Sessions. is that just marketing speak for a feature that's on every router anyway?
any other suggestions? although that TP-link TD-W8970 seems to do everything we need of it.
