1234352 2011-09-29 03:50:00 Our old router passed away last night so I got my partner to order in a Netcomm NB6Plus4Wn from PB.I've heard on here they're quite good.
They asked her why she wanted one of those,we have better ones than that for half the price.The Netcomm was $160.
The Netcomm's are still the best bang for buck aren't they?
This is the same guy that told me USB 2 is better than USB 3.Now I have 2 super slow external hard drives.

1234355 2011-09-29 04:57:00 would it be better than my old Linksys WAG200G? I could still cancel the order. sk69ersnz (13476)
1234356 2011-09-29 05:14:00 Never actually owned a Linksys WAG200G, set a few up and they seemed OK. Same with the One at DSE - only ever supplied and set up one, and that was fine, (I use other Netgear modems/routers, as many people want cheaper without features)but I cant compare them performance wise as I dont have ADSL.

As per the other Post, I have the Netgear N300 Cable version and it works great, only ever had one problem with it , someone :rolleyes: (cough cough)forgot the changed password durhhh -- not a fault of the router.

Why are you even considering listening to that person?

1234360 2011-09-30 04:53:00 Ended up getting the Netcomm,was expecting to wait 3 or 4 days for it to arrive but it's there today which is quite quick for them.
My only other option is PC Gear.I'm seriously thinking about using Computer Lounge or Ascent in the future.

Thanks

1234361 2011-09-30 06:33:00 In any case, enjoy your new awesome router. I'm enjoying mine.

I've only ever had one issue with it and it required a swap of ethernet ports and a power cycle and voila. Still not sure what caused it but all good :)
