215118 2004-02-13 03:20:00 Hi there,

I need to find a good wireless DSL router. I'm aware that the Nokia MW1122 is a good'un...but this is obsolete now and I'm not sure of any other (good) brands. The person who it is for has shown up as in a 'marginal' area, although it ought to be fine, because I'm 10 doors down the street and the Nokia works fine for me.

A guy at Telecom recommended the Alcatel 510 to me, not sure if that comes in wireless?

Thanks,

Brendan

Originally, the plan was to buy the Dynalink RTA300W but Ascent were out of stock so I ended up going for the D-Link DSL-604+ which was about $70 cheaper. So far it seems pretty good. Even though the noise level on my phone line is shocking, I have had minimal problems with it.

215120 2004-02-13 05:51:00 I have a Dynalink RTA300W (dsl/router/firewall/802.11b)

No problems with it at all now. Only issue I had before was UPNP was not working, but a firmware fix made that right (this is all a fair while ago). I'm a fair way from the phone exchange but by adsl never has dropped.

There are Dlink and US robotics products which offer what you want with 802.11G - I'd probably look at these first now but the Dynalink is a solid product too just behind in the wireless standard.
