    Hoping someone could offer me one or two suggestions on a good quality stable router. UPC have upgraded my area so i'm finally getting proper fixed line broadband. I've never bought a router before and i'm a bit lost in the sea of reviews online.

    I'm using a Macbook Pro and will be getting the UPC basic 20MB package. I'm looking for a fast reliable router with no known problems with either UPC or Mac, as i've read a few issues with using certain routers with certain providers and Operating systems. Also something with a wide range around the house, i'm not sure of how the different range codes work and it's just confused me.

    Hoping for a few suggestions. OR even tips on what to look for.

    The 20Mb package seems to be gone and the 25Mb includes a combined modem/wireless router afaik.

    Theres a menu on the left side where you can click into the 20MB package. But even though I ordered the 20MB one I still got the Wireless Modem included... Strange but I won't complain!
