Which Router

Ok i'm pulled between two routers, i've heard both of them are good at holding long/noisy lines and i've also read that they can give some improvement on current syncs over the Netgear router i currently have, both of them also work with DMT, just which one do i buy.

>just which one do i buy.

It will help if you mention the two routers that you are considering.

Haha, no way i cant believe i forgot the two routers out how dumb of me i swear i put them in here, anyways the two routers are listed below, which one do i buy?.


Belkin 7633
Linksys WAG54GS
SpeedTouch 585 v6


Oopss. there is actually 3 i'm pulled towards, sorry.

i had the belkin one. Total disaster. I bought a new one and just decided to use it as a switch.

Oh right, i've heard there good routers you sure yours was the Belkin 7633 model, also does anyone else know which one i should go for?.

Anyone know which router to go for then?.

585 v6 is a good safe bet! Go for it...

Maybe it is, but is it as good as the other two at holding longer lines and maybe improving the current sync rate over my Netgear router?.

Both the belkin and 585 are good at long lines, ive got both, on a 63db line (currently using the belkin)

The belkin wont save the snr tweaks though if you have to reboot. The Speedtouch will.

The speedtouch has a horrible web interface, but the belkins is pretty easy to get round.

You get the benefit of DMT with Speedtouch but which netgear do you have. I've found both the dg834g V2 and V3 good at holding long noisy lines. My mums Max line on a Zyxell would sync at 1 mbit and often fall over a couple of times a day. Her DG834G v3 hasn't reset in 2500 hrs with a DSL uptime of 600 hours syncs at 3.2 Mbit.
