    Why not keep the router and get mesh wifi?

    I picked up these (2 pack version) and they work a treat!

    TP Link Decos

    I did I bought a archer vr600 off ebay for £35 and works a treat. Great range and no dropouts and is plug and play. Couldn't believe how easy it is to set up and has its own tether app so u can set up from ur phone

    That's the eventual plan but my experience with the F2000 is that it needs resetting quite often. So the plan right now is to replace it and then get a mesh network up and running.

    I'm looking to replace my F2000 with a fritzbox 7530, however these are not that easy to buy. I've had a look at amazon and apparently all the software could be in German language only according to some comments i've read.

    Anyone knows a good place to get this modem from with the software in English and a UK/Ireland power plug included?
