Linksys Kit

I have just bought a new 802.11G router

from Linksys, upgrading from by previous 'B' version.

I just love the Linksys kit. I have had several negative conversations with colleagues about its design but I like it. Its distinctive and it stands out. What's more it is very stable on top of my cable modem! And more importantly its easy to install and configure.

I think the key for me though has been its ability to be rock solid despite all the odd things I get up to. When I compare it to previous kit I've tried out (names omitted to protect the weak!) it stands head and shoulders above them. I have seen an article knocking the speed but it does perform better than the 802.11b router I had, even if it doesn't make 54 Mbps

For the record I do have a business relationship with Linksys and ntl have a deal with them (it was one of my proejcts). But I remain an advocate because of the kit not because of the deal.

BTW I'm playing around with Amazon ads at the moment. I've added one for Linksys kit just to see how it works (seems they have some good deals there at the moment too... I wonder if I need anything else?:-) ). I'd be delighted if you bought something, but they are there because I'm experimenting with the technology to see whether I would use it elsewhere, when I finally get the betaroad site up and running. Please feel free to comment as per usual.
