wireless router advice needed

John Player

Hi All,

I dont know if this is the correct forum for this, so please move if needed.

I should be set up with Smart by end of the month and I want to get a wireless router. Im thinking of this one - http://www.komplett.ie/k/ki.asp?sku=316143&cks=PRL if i get it does it mean i have to plug it into the smart modem that arrives or can i just plug this one directly into the phone line?

if not can anyone please recommend a cheap wireless router that i can just plug into the phone and not use the smart one at all.

thanks again for all the help.

cheers,
luke

The model you have listed needs to be plugged into a modem and if you are doing that you will need to read this:

Some people have stated on the Smart support board that they have found this model good:

Its around town for about 100 euros (Argos stock it) and I use this one which has excellent wireless range but I had to update the firmware to get any reliablity with it.

Its about 140 euros - visit the Smart support board and ask there what people are using.
