I want to buy the new pre-n belkin wireless router for my tiscali broadband service but is there an ADSL version or can I use this router with ADSL. If not is the netgear wpn824 any good? The choice for ADSL users seems to be limited while other cable users seem to have loads of choice.

Please help!!

    Take your pick from this BroadbandBuyer page, where it says ADSL!

    The F5D8230-uk4 is a cable modem wireless router, not ADSL. You can link it to an ADSL modem to give your wireless broadband the benefit of the better range achieved with MIMO. The Broadbandbuyer link above has bundles which include all the necessary parts. Belkin give free phone support (0800 number) which is reputedly good.

    You need an Ethernet ADSL modem - not one which connects using USB.
