    The ISP is Blueyonder (eek! I know but they locked us in by threatening to take away Sky Sports!!). Will the netgear ones work with it?

  • As long as cable modem is not USB one Linksys shouldn't be a problem (me think). You might need to clone MAC address though.

    Had to do it with NTL on SMC router - they registered my MAC address from PC and refused to change it to anything else. Was quite a long time ago though :)
  • That type of thing never happens these days. If it was frequent we'd see a LOT more posts about it, and if it wasn't frequent then he'd be unlucky for it to happen :p

    I've had a netgear router for a year. Top thing!
