Which router?

confusedmix

Ok thanks for the advice and no I don't really play games so thats' not really an issue for me, however, If I'm going to be spending at least £90 on a router then i want to get the best I can afford, anymore suggestions please?

Why are you spending so much on a router to start with - does it have features that you need?

confusedmix

It's not that it's just I'm looking for a router that's really fast and I'm looking at the argos catalogue and they seem to be starting from over £50

You know it isn't going to make any difference to your Internet connection speed though?

No I didn't know that, and to be honest I am completely lost. I don't know why things have to be so complicated. There are three main issues I am thinking about

1. The faster the better
2. the price
3. reliabilty
