    NETGEAR DG834G replacement

    The router I use in my shop is starting to get unreliable. I need a suitable replacement (we use wifi and I have 4 PCs hardwired to it) that can be set up by an IT retard such as myself.

    Seen this on Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/TP-Link-TD-W...7672397&sr=8-2

    Anyone got any better suggestions? We're using plusnet as our broadband provider.

    Cheers

    Unreliable? Try a firmware update first - those routers are mega. (Yeah - I said Mega lol)

    I shall look into doing this tomorrow. It's started dropping out and been getting error messages. To be fair it has done well, had it plugged in for 5 years now.

    these are probably the best home router ever sold. update your firmware and see if that fixes it. if not, check the logs and see whats going wrong, it may be another problem with your phoneline etc. IF your replacing, I would buy another netgear like the DGN1000.

    It died whilst updating the firmware this morning. I bought anothe netgear from maplin in the end, shame but I couldn't waste time trying to fix it with 3 members of staff twiddling their thumbs and customers due in. The thing was totally mashed couldn't log on to it at all or get it to reset.

    Netgear DG834 has been around for YEARS. They're generally faultless, if you're having problems I would suggest firmware for a start, as they go on and on and on.

    Appears mine is fine... my supplier has incorrectly cut my connection! Unimpressive.

    I wouldn't say that the Cisco Linksys range are exactly Cisco though are they But for a cheap router they aren't bad, I've got one at home that touch wood has been ok for the last year or so, but they are not a 'proper' Cisco bit of kit by any means.

    Drayteks are nice, used them a lot for my folks offices and they've always been rock solid.
