    Anyone been offered later start shifts since having to turn down the job due to early shift times?
    Hi Sparkly
    I've had to turn training down twice as it was for positions which start too early for me. When I turned the training down last week, the reply I got from recruiter was VERY short so I'm not holding out a lot of hope to be honest. Hopefully someone will reply to your thread that will give us both some hope!
    Good Luck

    WILL THE NETGEAR WIRED ADSL ROUTER DO THE JOB,

    ADVICE ANYONE,

    Netgear are very good. Consider the Netgear DG834G, DG834GT, DG834PN.

    This is assuming that you have ADSL broadband (through your phone line - not Virgin Media cable).

    The DG834 is a wired router. Same as the DG834G but without the wireless part. If you don't need wireless, the DG834 is still a very good router. Good luck! :)

    PS, sorry to kick you in the balls, but £60 is a bit steep for a DG834. Here's one for £27 delivered. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Netgear-DG834-ADSL2-Modem-Router-with-4-port-V3_W0QQitemZ130217437349QQcmdZViewItem

    Jammin!!!!!!

    Well I can tell you what a dam day I have had with the Netgear router!!!

    I phoned the techie people for Netgear, they did the installation for, all was well until I had to enter my password for my Bt internet account. Oh boy, the password would not work...... so........... got onto Bt. they did the ususal security check, said my password was working fine. Any went back to Netgear, done the password thingy again, and again. They decided to reset the router, so we begin all over again. Still the Password would not work.

    Got back onto Bt they said everything their end was working fine, connection and stuff. They reset my password and sent me back to Netgear. It was entered and still not accepting.

    Got so fed up, I unplugged the whole dam thing and got bt to reinstall my adsl modem to see if the new password would work!!! it did!!!

    went back to Netgear gave some info passed by bt techie and still the password would not work. I gave up!!!!!!!!!!

    Went back to Bt, the guy felt sooo sorry as I have been at this dam thing for nearly 4 hours!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    He said I had been sent a router not long ago, with my new tarrif a few weeks ago. I said no. He asked was I sure, I was exhausted and couldnt remember but he was a diamond!!

    I remembered and told him I had a bt home hub!! he said that was great, but I said it was not wireless. He said it works both ways. Anyway it took him 5 minutes to help me connect the dam thing and ............

    retook the workbooth assessment just now and Passed it!!!!!!!! finally yipeeeee. God knows my patience has been tested to the full and now I have to return the dam Netgear, hope I get my £60.00 back!!!

    hope your day was better than mine!!

    Weird, they are not normally this bad at replying. Sometimes there can be a slight delay but you don't normally have to keep emailing them for a response.
