Hi
I bought a Belkin router from PC World- looked up cable wireless routers on their website and this had a usb adapter plus lifetime warrenty and free phone support, so thought it looked good for £45.
However- was looking at box just now- and although same part ref B5Duk035 on the back of the box it says `...share your ADSL internet...` mine is broadband from Virgen media was NTL.
Is it the wrong one?
Thank you
