Belkin N router - great improvement!


[link to this post]
 
I got this router plus N dongles last week and the speed/connection are much improved on my VM cable line. Via wireless (router downstairs, lappies upstairs), I never get below 14Mbps and often get >19Mbps - speeds I could only get with a direct cable to the modem in the past.
A techie friend recommended disabling the installed wireless card when using dongles and he was right. Belkins are a bit choosy about which channel to use, but apart from that I can recommend this setup (£100 for the router and two dongles).
Have now postponed a decision about 50 meg.

The dlink one that VM supplys works very well with the dongle you also get. It's the first time I have ever got full speed wireless. Having said that it is transfering at 320mbps..

Is that router supplied just with the 50Mb service?

Yes I believe so.. The router for 20MB is a Netgear.
