RE: ADSL router/hub?



Thanks for all the suggestions. I’ve now arrived at a shopping list:

 

2xLinksys WAP11s

1xAlcatel Speedtouch 510 – seems to be really well supported

1xCheap generic 4 port hub (It makes sense to do it this way as the Speedtouch only has 10BaseT ports)

One very long CAT5 cable. One very short CAT5 cable.

Splitter

 

Wires only contract with OneTel (so I can keep my existing email address)

I would not recommend the ASUS range to anyone now.
They have basically washed their hands as far as firmware updates are
concerned :(
Currently, the better bet appears to be the SAR 715 (about £30 more)
which is running on Virata 8.2 (
http://www.virata.com/Archive/isos81.html ) supports uPnP, Etc - the
ASUS range don't have the capacity for Virata 8.2
