| 834233 | 2009-11-28 02:47:00 | Looking at changing my Telecom supplied Thomson ST536 modem to one with four ports. What are good, reasonably priced brands to look at? Don't need wireless. Thanks. |

| 834234 | 2009-11-28 03:06:00 | Most that are 4-ports that are reliable come with Wireless anyways. You could always just go with a Linksys AM300 and then hook it up to a switch? | Chilling_Silence (9) | ||
| 834235 | 2009-11-28 23:51:00 | Thanks. I have enough stuff behind the computer now and was hoping to use one box instead of adding another one. What advantage would adding a switch after the Linksys AM300 have over doing the same to the Thomson that I already have? I suppose wireless would be future proofing, especially if we decide to get a Tivo, or update the daughter's laptop. Thanks again, b |

| 834237 | 2009-11-29 09:29:00 | Yeah TiVo is freaking awesome .. in that case grab yourself the NetComm NB6Plus4Wn. The AM300 is a single-port router, but it's rock-solid like you wouldn't believe! If you can afford the little extra, then future-proof yourself with WiFi ... and definitely investigate TiVo :D |
