    Perhaps a Linksys WRT54G router. I think they retail at around €60 and €80 now. Have a look in Currys and PC World. See: http://www.komplett.ie/k/ki.asp?sku=306148.

    Just make sure it has a WAN port -- you *don't* want an ADSL router.

    Been using the WRT54G on NTL for years and havent had a problems
    One point though, go for the WRT54GL as it using the same linux kernel as previous versions see http://www.komplett.ie/k/ki.asp?sku=314078

    The new version has performance issues after they changed the kernel.

    I just did a quick search the find the link I posted, but fair play, Jabbathegut for digging that up. It's best to keep your options open on the firmware front.

    For anyone who is interested, the list of differences between the Linksys WRT54G revisions can be found here.
