Belkin Wireless G Router F5D7230-4

I have had a Belkin router for a while now and although I did not directly pay for it (work gave me some gift vouchers) I would possibly buy again.... if they changed a few things! The router itself does its job. I have a Desktop wired to it and a laptop which I use wireless in the house or wired if its on my desk. The laptop I thought would be a problem as when I locked up my connection, I thought that if it was connected on Ethernet and Wireless it might have a fit, but it was fine and I work with it effortlessly. I am using the router in conjunction with my Virgin Media connection and a now rather old NTL cable modem. This can cause problems as ...  Read the complete review

I have mixed opinions about this router. When it works, it works very well, every menu is easy and it works right out the box. The trouble is, under heavy use, the internet can drop out regularly. This issue is easy to fix, simply restarting the router sets you back on track within 5 seconds, but seeing as my router is in a different room, it can be annoying.

Ok my ariel is on the other side, but the Belking wireless router is a small home system, and according to the box its the weakest of the range and will cover the room of your house and possibly the adjacent rooms. I find it covers the whole house from one end to the other and both front and back garden, and still have full signal, so I can't see where they get that from, so it's great. The router requires a PC with internet to plug into with the Ethernet cable and you can also have up to 4 PC's coming off of it with a wired connection. With the belkin router you get a excellent signal, but its intermittent, so instant messenger doesn't work well ...  Read the complete review

I think I now understand what the writing on the box means now. Ill explain to you. On the box it says 57Mbps; so I thought well I don't need a better one cuz thats faster than my internet (20Mbps), so ill get the full speed of my internet. Also it said on the box that this router is good for surfing and email, some other better ones were good for, games, downlads and things. I assumed they did all that because they were faster, but 57Mbps was enough for me. But it's not the speed that does it, its the actaul connection. For some reason the network is constantly disconnecting for a split second every so often, like an intermittant connection. So when downloading or ...  Read the complete review
