    - just wondering what the diffrence bettwean the diffren routers is
    - are some more relable?
    - do some have good firewalls
    - port forwarding?

    ADSL i take it.

    SpeedTouch 510v4 (inbuilt 4 port switch)

    SpeedTouch 530 (1 usb port and 1 Ethernet port, can be used with a switch and so on)

    or the new

    SpeedTouch 580 with 4 port 10/100 switch and 802.11g inbuilt

    Not had any of the problems other have had with routers with these.

    o btw the 580 now comes with a SPI firewall which is even better now

    ps i got the 530, and the only time it gets rebooted is when am messing with things otherwise it's up for months at a time and now slow down in browsing at all.
