Hi Jovetic,
Did you not receive the 2110 wireless router with your account? If you did and that's what isn't working we can replace it, it's guaranteed for 12 months.
Hope that helps,

Re: New router advice

well if ya could that would be great, just didnt think it would be covered as it was my own equipment that seemed to fry it.

Re: New router advice

If I had the money I would get a draytek router currently have a speedtouch 716wl v5 its okay for the basics
To give mine a longer life i plug it in to a belkin surge protector (power/telephone protection), had an old speedtouch and modem fry in the past

Re: New router advice

i have a draytek; they're premium money and feature rich and mine's been rock-solid and does have remote management.
But check out the draytek forums too as some report their models seem a bit dodge on marginal max lines; plus their firmware updates can also be irregular and flaky when they arrive (I only ever updated mine once as I simply don't have a need for all the features; I just bought it coz i wanted a proper toy :))
