    can't relly decide what router to get need Gigabit ethernet and Wi-fi to go with my icy box nas on a dsl line

    been looking at
    Belkin N1 Vision Wireless Router
    and
    D-Link DIR-655, Extreme N Wireless

    don't have a need or any use for the higher 5GHz wireless

    Cisco
    Juniper
    Linksys/Cisco
    Netgear (some good, some not)
    3Com
    D-Link (some good, some not)
    ZyXel (some good, some not)
    Buffalo

    Not Belkin

    You are better with a 10/100Mbps Router and Turbo 54g 802.11a/b/g and a 3com 1Gbps 8 port Switch as none of the consumer router/Modems can do much more than about 2 x 100mbps reliably

    I have a 3com. Why haven't you mentioned them? Or have I missed something?

    Don't be sorry .. you were giving your opinions or whatever and I just wondered why 3com weren't rated. Thought the answer might be useful for me and the OP. :)
