Netgear Wireless Router

susi

Hi
Thanks to the help on this board I have decided to go for the Netgear DG834GT, I have searched around and found this, is this a good deal? Has anyone delt with these before? I just have a pc and a laptop at the moment but would possibly be adding another pc later. .....Thanks for any help

That one's cheaper because it doesn't include the free WG511T notebook wireless adapter included in the Misco deal. Note that this Netgear router is currently bundled with either the WG511T or WG111T USB adapter. See http://www.netgear.co.uk/dg834gt_wireless_bundle.php.

In that case,

Edit : That wasn't including VAT, oh well

Yeah seems like a good deal as you get a PCMCIA network card too. Check if you're laptop needs one though.

I've got one of these and had a few problems with configuration. It works fine though. (But I don't use it wirelessly at the moment.)

The Netgear PCI card has had a real slating from all the reviews on Amazon.

I don't think you'll find one any cheaper than Broadbandbuyer


Edit: although it certainly helps if you remember to add in the VAT :doh:


I'll get my coat .... :rolleyes:

You can use any card you like, doesn't have to be a netgear. I use a Trust PCI card and it works like a dream! Just a thought, but is there any particularly reason you need the 108mbps version? I have the 54mbps one and never had a problem with connection speeds, plus it's a lot cheaper

I know I was advised to get the one that has a built in firewall but other than that..........clueless Im afraid....................think I need help here dont I...........someone please tell me what Im looking for?????????
