    Belkin routers are a piece of crap bought this one few weeks ago and had to bring it back.

    I have had two Belkin routers and they were absolute junk. Belkin knowingly release products that don’t work. Avoid..

    I avoid any Belkin gear like the plague after having numerous issues with their products over the years.

    I agree with all the previous posters, avoid Belkin products.
    I had many problems with any of their products i have bought.

    I've got a Belkin router and it's crap, anyone got any recommendations for one that I can replace it with?

    The Buffalo WHR-G125 supports flashing with the DD-WRT firmware. I think that would be a good choice, or any of the recommended routers here: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Index:FAQ#Which_router_should_I_buy.3F

    Buffalo & DD-WRT are well thought of but be careful. The Belkin products I owned (and binned) where modem/routers.

    If you buy a pure router you will also need to buy a modem assuming you are using ADSl/ADSL2(+)
