    What wireless routers do you use?

    I have eircom broadband and a netopia router and the xbox is connected to the wireless network, and the router keeps dropping the wireless connection. It has to be rebooted to get the wireless working again, a total pain when it comes to playing online.

    So I am going to get a new one, and if any of you can recommend a decent one, that would be great.

    Thanks

    Something like this will be grand Batman. Only 60 quid too

    We've been using one of these at work for ages and it's never disconnected.

    A lot of my mates have the same problem and they are all with Eircom, might be something to think about! (they are useless!)

    The Netgear DG834G or Linksys WAG54G2 so, I will check em out, thanks lads.

    Cheers Bombleswizzum, but the only choices for broadband where I live are BT or Eircom 3mb lines. Its been fine for gaming, except the router wireless problems.

    Ordered the netgear, 77quid from pixmania, not too bad, went for the 48 hour delivery option too, only cost 5 euro more.
