    Basically my old one is rubbish and Im looking to buy a reasonably priced VoIP capable router.

    Any Advice.

    Its just for home and it doesn't need to be top of the range.

    What do you mean by a "VoIP capable" router? Do you mean a router that actually has phone ports built in or a router that can prioritise VoIP traffic?

    Phone ports built in I think.
    What does the other one mean?

    It just means that the voice traffic gets priority over other Internet traffic so that if there's a lot of activity on your broadband with people uploading/downloading then the voice quality isn't affected.

    Anyway, if you're using Blueface for your VoIP (which most people are) then they do the Linksys WRP400 wireless ATA/Router here which does pretty much everything you might need.
