This Medion router is going on sale in the Special Buys for £69.99 at Aldi on Thursday (I believe).

This is the spec below:

Wireless LAN Router 54MBit/s with built-in ADSL - and 56K Modem.

Ready for both ADSL broadband and 56K modem internet connections
Easy to configure simple 'one-click' set-up
Secure internet access firewall, WEP and WPA encryption
Includes 54MBit/s, 802.11g USB WLAN adaptor for laptop or desktop PCs (IEEE 802.11g - USB 1.1 or 2.0 compatible)
The one-click set-up allows you to easily configure all basic functions of the router
Be online in a few minutes. As well as the very simple 'one-click' basic set-up - a more detailed and user configurable professional set-up is available for more advanced users
Includes USB WLAN adaptor

Can't say I'm too hot on modem routers, is it any good for the price?
