I've been using a Safecom 4114 ADSL modem/4 port router since Nov 2004 with no problems. They also have a very helpfull online support forum ( not had any major problems , but good for background stuff about the product)

I've Just bought my eldest daughter a Laptop last night as part of her birthday pressie ( 18th at the end of the month), now thinking that perhaps i should have gone wireless with the router, rather than the wired on that i got.

Oh well time to get the tool box and drill out again ( her bedroom is upstairs , router is downstairs   ).
