If you're in the market for a cheap router....

Pull your hand back from that D-Link DI-604.

I just purchased one with funds generously thrown at me by a neighbor whose computers I have been keeping running or, in one case, diagnosing a bad motherboard as the culprit rather than the Manly Browsing Habits of the guys in the house.

Nice post Sunflower, as is your Routers 'n kid s one too.

I have just switched from a Linksys/ADSL modem router to a cable modem (supplied by my ISP) and a Linksys router.

I should know hte model number, but would need to trek upstairs to the study where it resides.

My old router couldn't tell the time, bloody annoying as it is a diagnostic necessity when talking to your ISP about frequent disconnects, plus if scheduling is desired.

Sadly there was no way to input the date/time manually...

This new model, while a little bulkier and more purposeful in appearance, tells the time just fine and has one of those neat 'single click security' features .

I favour Linksys myself now, and would use Netgear too.

Belkin are also reasonably good, and can put out a good strong wireless signal.

I am a little disappointed that this piece of kit is inadequate- the case is small and far more attractive than the Linksys.
