    Can anyone suggest a good router. I'm with UPC and have a Netgear WGR614 v6, which I've had for a while now. At the moment my wired speed is twice as fast as my wireless and as far as I know I have the latest firmware (V2.0.19_1.0.19). I'd prefer to get another Netgear to make as smooth a transition as possible, but if the general consensus is that they're shít, then I'm obviously open to suggestions.

    With UPC (depending on the package) you'd want N.
    Buffalo WZR-HP-G300NH
    Buffalo WHR-HP-G300N

    The first one (WZR) has gigabit ports and USB port for NAS/Bittorrent fuctionality etc
    The second one (WHR) would be fine otherwise.

    Cheers lads, I'm leaning towards the Netgear one at the moment. None available on Komplett at the moment even though it seems to be quite expensive.
