Belkin ADSL Router

cazkins

Hello,
I came across a few deals on Belkin routes and I'm looking for something cheapish to replace my current one. I'm running a Windows 7 PC, and want a wireless connection for my laptop & iPod Touch/Android phone within the house. We've got a BT phone line with Pipex Broadband. The router I'm looking at is the Belkin G Wireless F5D7634uk4-H : http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B003BIEOPK/ref=ord_cart_shr?ie=UTF8&m=A3TLXN00XR34MU

Could anyone confirm that this should work with Pipex? It doesn't list Pipex where it gives examples of other BB providers, so I wanted to check. We've currently got a BT Fusion Hub (a strange choice considering we don't have a BT fusion phone, I know) with a DSL connection.

Any thoughts/confirmation would be much appreciated!

Are you having any problems or issues with your current router?

It should work just fine, not the best router on the market, but it will do the job.

I personally loath Belkin routers/modems but I suspect it will do the job /

Yes, that router should work fine on any ADSL2 broadband provider, including Pipex.

It's cheaper at Play, though: (£8.99)

Thanks for the help all, I really appreciate it. I might get away with the current router for a little longer if I could reset the thing, but I can't find a way of doing it. It's a BT Fusion thingy and I've poked and prodded for a hidden reset to no avail. The Play.com price is a bargain for a lower-budget router though, shall spend my pennies on that I think.

How do I reset the BT Hub?

1. Hold down button 1.
2. Disconnect the Hub from the power supply.
3. Wait 10 seconds.
4. Re-connect the hub to the power supply.
5. Release button 1.

There's nothing in the booklet that came with the router about resetting, but I saw that somewhere online before and tried it but to no avail; I'll try again! Thanks Poppy10, much appreciated
