I have a relatively longish line (Attn 44dB on ADSl2+), and wondered what router was best. I have just switched to Value, so whats to TG585 like, also have heard good things about 2wire, and the Netgear DG834s. What does everyone think? Not too fussed on cost, to a resonable level. Just require a good quality reliable router..

The 2700HGVs don't actually need unlocking, at least certainly not up till late 2008 issue - not sure about later (v6) ones. The first four digits of the serial number indicate the manufacturing date eg 1207 - Dec '07.

As you say, 4Candles, technically the 2700HGV's (BT firmware) don't actually get unlocked. All that is neccessary is to 'bypass' some configuration restrictions that are designed to only allow use on BT realms, and yes, even the v6 firmware can be configured for any ISP...
