UK Posted August 11, 2007 Posted August 11, 2007 OK, so: My wireless router is fucked up. Dropping it on the floor has totally ruined it's function with 'communicating' with other objects round th house (laptops, Wii, etc). So my question is this: What new, cheap wireless router would you recommend? Thank you everyone.
Shorty Posted August 11, 2007 Posted August 11, 2007 To be honest I've had my fill of cheap, crappy routers and economy wireless, I'd steer clear. The signal strength sucks, lack of compatibility with Nintendo consoles. I'd go for a nice Netgear router or something. That said, do you have a warranty or anything? Maybe you could return the one you broke....

Guest Stefkov Posted August 11, 2007 Posted August 11, 2007 Netgear WGT624 v3. I have that one. Really good. I'm sat on my toilet, on my laptop about 5 metres away from the router, with the wall of the toilet, and then the wall of the room it's in and I have 3 bars out of 5. It's always like that around my house. Downstairs below the router it's the same strength. Plus it's got WEP, WPA etc so it's good for Wii and DS.
Ant-Shimmin Posted August 12, 2007 Posted August 12, 2007 Netgear Routers are the way to go I got one on Ebay Brand new from tier1(Might of been a different shop) for £10... PC, Laptop, Wii and Another Laptop go through it including my 360.... Works like magic....

Guest Jordan Posted August 13, 2007 Posted August 13, 2007 I (unforchunatly) have a shitty US Robotics router. Its a bag of shit. Shit. Its slow, it constantly cuts out, its useless and i have no say in it because i'm just using the line. I'll probably end up replacing it...
