Does anyone have some info on what modem to buy. I have only ever used a dial-up connected to my internal modem.
Now will have a desktop and laptop.
Also anyone have an opinion on Packard Bell Easynote r1802 R5999 or the Fujitsu Amilo 1.5GHz R6695. Same spec.


thanks
 
I second the Billion. Either the 5102 or the 5102s. One is single port and other is 4 port. I run my office network off my Billion 5102 4 port router. If you can afford it go wireless.
 
What's the best (and best value) wireless router?
 
Where to buy them though? That Digital Planet place has very good prices and I was going to go with them, but after checking out that thread about them they don't really sound like an option anymore, and I'm struggling to find a decent place to buy one at a reasonable price.

I bought mine from then, didnt have any problems, but I might just have been lucky
 
I've found a few other decent-looking sites to buy the billion wireless ADSL modem/router from checking out their official site.

MouseMall.co.za : R754

Jump.co.za : R754

SohoLink.co.za : R849

Okay, so the first two are like R100 cheaper, so I suppose I'll go with one of them unless anyone has anything scary to say about them. Thanks guys!
 
*smacks forehead*

Okay well, I guess I'm gonna go with MouseMal. *holds thumbs*
 
What about the one that Telkom supplies R800 for a wireless modem + extra ports and includes two filters. Not a bad deal??
 
i have telkom 5102g... is that a billion make or what... looks different to billion product though... having hassles with wireless setup as per my post in other section... anyone here that can help...
