Linksys WGKPC354G Wireless ASDL Modem/Router & Laptop Card £39.99

Seen on the PC World Website Today. The Router/Modem on it's own is £69.99 so with the bundled B/G laptop card, it's a steal!! Online or collect at store...

That is a great price! I bought the Cable version at the weekend for £50. Thought that was good. Shame they havent reduced that combo

Just noticed - its the 54Mbps one - I got the 108 one. Doh!

Does anyone know if this router has a socket so that I could also connect an xbox 360 to it as well as my laptop

I think the xbox 360 is connected via a ethernet port but not sure

The router has 4 ethernet ports so you should be able to connect your xbox no problems.

I bought one of these last year at the same price and it is a great buy. No issues with it what so ever. Previous linksys router was woeful.

Does it deninatly have ethernet ports on the modem/router as their is no mention of it in the write up

It does. Or at least the same one that we got my boyfriend's mother does, so I'm sure this one will.

Will purchase this as it's the cheapest ADSL router/modem I have seen as I am using supanet adsl broadband running through a BT line and want to set up a wireless connection for when I get my laptop tomorrow

a good tip :j

if anyone buys one make sure the box has not been opened

pc world do sell these but some of them have been sent back by previous owners.

i know because this happened to me.

had to take the first one back.

otherwise it is a good package

i got it for the same price earlier this year.
