Netgear RangeMax WPN824 MIMO-G Wireless Cable Router

Rangemax - Purchase a beauty
I brought the rangemax wireless router to use BT Broadband with 2 home computers and a laptop. The range and speed is almost always around 54mps and an excellent signal quality. I have sat at the end of our 200ft garden and can still get a good signal. The setup was easy enough just put in the CD and your off. One word of warning though this product needs an external Ethernet Modem not USB as supplied with most broadband providers.

Excelent piece of hardware!
I was a little worried that the signal would not be stong enough to go through two floors, and numerous walls, to be recieved at the bottom of the house by my laptop, however signal is good/very good 90% of the time which is far better than I expected.
I needed a little help setting up, and sorting password security, but technical support were excelent, and all was sorted in a matter of minutes.
Therefore if you need a router with good signal strength, this seems to do the job very well!
Ignore the FRUSTRATED review below
This to alert non-techie users to the bad information given in the review posted on 4 January 2006 entitled "Frustrated - Not Half". It is not Netgear's fault that the wrong router was purchased by the previous reviewer. This router is designed to work with cable broadband suppliers (such as NTL & Telewest) and therefore will not support PPPoA as they don't use that protocol. However if you want PPPoA to use with a BT phone line, you need the Netgear model DG834PN - the ADSL Modem Router. This does support PPPoA and will work with any broadband that uses a BT phone line. I have used both Netgear & Belkin products, so I know what I'm talking about.
