Happy new year blondites  disco

I've got a nice little lappie from Dell this morning and it is magic. Obviously i now need to get a wireless router to be able to get on to the net, are they pretty much like for like and all do the same thing or is there a difference say between netgear and someone else ? I take it that most if not all the people on here have a lappie so please give me your opinions on what you think i need. Cheers. Dave

My Linksys router kept dropping the connection and proved too frustrating to live with.  I replaced it with a Netgear one and haven't had a problem since.

From personal experience, go with the Netgear one.

Netgear are more expansive than the linkys shit, but very good and easy to setup.

Had Belkin for 18 months been perfect although set up isnt as straight forward as Netgear.
i have set up 2 or 3 netgear ones for friends and they are very good.

So to sum up in a technical way
Linksys sh*t + Netgear unreliable + Belkin Good= Get Belkin

The author would like to state he is not liable for his own statement. The linksys comment is not of his own as he is not a sound mind as he is a on the edge gambler and in no way has an endorsement deal with Belkin (BUY BELKIN!)

Dave,

Phone the call centre number which should be on the box the router came in. Make sure you have a wep password for your network.
