Your first link is confusing. Although it brings up a VR2600 correctly, it plonks VR900 in the search box

Not sure how that happened, but anyway I've updated the url.

Thanks

Thanks for your reply.
I'll keep away from the netgear then as it's certainly a huawei cabinet

What are the TP link like for stability? Can they be left for months on end without needing a reboot?

I think older TP links needed updates once a week or two which was annoying...

I had to put a timeswitch on my tplink to reboot it every 24 hours to stop it locking up
£3 not the end of the world

W9970 stable with no issues

How long has it been connected?

Both the VR2600 & VR900 are very good wrt stability so you shouldn't have any issues. In case you do, I've found TP Link uk support to be very helpful. In any case you can return the router to amazon within 30 days for a refund or replacement

18 day(s) 05:33:03 and that is the time from when I switched it on again after being away for a while

If you don't mind splashing out, then the TP Link VR2600 is arguably the best modem/router out there currently, it uses a Broadcom modem chipset with 4 stream Mu-Mimo Qualcomm wifi radios. The Netgear D7800 is exactly the same except that it uses Lantiq chipset for the modem so get the VR2600 if you're connected to a Huawei cabinet or D7800 if you're connected to an ECI cabinet.

If the above routers are out of your budget, then the TP Link VR900 is the next best thing, its a superb 3 stream wifi router & uses a broadcom modem chipset. You'll be satisfied with any of these three

Interesting how even decent routers seem to get similarly poor reviews on Amazon.
