Eircom Router / other cheap routers?

cianclarke · 2007-09-18 19:15:24

I'm wondering how do people go about buying the eircom router without having their BB service? I tried to do so in 3G stevens green yesterday but I was told I had to sign up with Eircom before I could take one away. I said I already had eircom BB and just wanted to buy the router - no good, he wouldn't sell it without me…

Is there any other stores where you can just walk in and take away the box with the router?

If not is there anywhere else I could get a cheapo router for my Imagine ASDL? I guess they come with the DSL filter thing you need?

Thanks

Hasn't really been used as switched to NTL (always used my own router on eircom).

€25 for that router in 3g / Pc World/ Currys / Dixons and Harvey Norman

Just give any 8 digit number such as 43214321 and a phone number that passes the test and they will sell it to you for €25 no probs...especially Currys or Dixons
