    I hope to have Regional Broadband installed on Tuesday.
    Regional Broadband told me if I supply a router the installer will set it up.

    What type of Router should I buy?

    Thanks for any help.

    Make sure you get a cable router,I have a netgear and it's fine.You'll pick one up in Argos and Tesco sell them,shop around as they vary in price and spec.

    Thanks zerks,
    I printed of the two links for reference and both Routers are in my budget range.
    Going to try Redmond Electrical in Gorey for the routers first, as Argos is a bit of a spin.

    Thanks,

    Don't get a Belkin whatever you do.

    Exactly what Jor El has said avoid Belkin at all costs

    I've had some terrible experiances with belkin devices they are not good at all for networking.:)

    Bought the Netgear N300 Wireless Router (For Cable Connections) in Argos yesterday.
    Went for the N300 over the N150 purely for the possibility of online gaming.
    Installer due today so will find out if it works.
    Thanks for all the help
