Biggest disappointment for me is when selecting a link i wouldn't know if i was still on my old adsl or not, I naively thought pages would load like lightning but I see no discernable difference
Never mind that's progress

Re: Router Suitability .

Hi Chris thanks for the prompt reply, when you are a relative novice it's really reassuring to get some info
