Talk about hand people a stick to beat you with !!

To be honest I don't think this will put me off using it
since it can be disabled, and if I can get a decent modem.

Phil,
which modem do you use with your belkin wifi kit ?
or do you have an 'always on' server that the modem connects to...

I've been recommended the DSL300G, but it is not cheap at 60ish quid.

The one on ebuyer previously suggested has a built in router, which I
understand could make setup a bit tricky due to the belkin kit also
having a router in it.
I'm not being very clued up on all this stuff, so any advice
gratefully received.

Cheers,
John.
