Belkin wireless 802.11g modem/router £34.99+£5.88P&P

Options
Misco are advertising a Belkin 802.11g wireless modem/router for £34.99. Their delivery charge is a minimum of £5.88 so total cost would be £40.87.
Good bit of kit - same as the one I use for our four PCs, (and my son's PSP) and I paid £80 for mine about a year ago.

    Yes, but it doesn't compare in price either! And 54Mbps networks are fine for most usage, given current broadband speeds.
    For someone looking to build their first home network this is a good little box.

    Don't care, because it sits on a shelf under my desk and I bought it for what it does rather than whether it was colour and design co-ordinated with my home.

    Later today my dog will be doing one in an interesting sun-glasses grey shade! Unlikely to have antennas as I put the leftover bits in the bin :D

    this item doesnt appear to be Belkin but rather a no name brand

    or are the internals Belkin ? but a non belkin case ?

    It is Belkin, just an older design.

    Beware though, 5 people I know (inc myself) have had these in the past and the power supply units have all failed. Belkin will replace but take a week or so to do so.

    PSU worked fine with mine. Just had problems with the firmware, so I changed it to some other one.
