| 1353357 | 2013-09-12 08:11:00 | I use a regular Dynalink ethernet connected modem for my Internet use, but I'd like to play around with a wireless one - simply because I've never used one and would like to have it as a backup. I have an option to have one of three modems as a gift from my friend, and I'd be keen to get an opinion on which one I should choose. They are: 1) Telecom Technicolor TG582n ADSL2+ Wireless Router 2) D-Link DSL-G604T ADSL2/2+ Generation 2 Modem Router 3) Linksys Wireless-N Home ADSL2+ Modem Router WAG120N I don't want to muck around TOO much with these things, so which should I choose? Thanks. ps - running Win Vista SP2 |

| 1353360 | 2013-09-12 10:47:00 | Of the three, the Linksys WAG120N is my pick. Make sure it's in a well ventilated area, preferably somewhere a bit cooler. As chill mention, they can have heating problems - but are great aside from that. | inphinity (7274) | ||
