Am i the only one having these problems?
Would seriously recomend this router if your just using it for laptops or computers though ![]()
I use netgear 834g, have for about 5 years. Got 2 laptops and and ps3 on it, and occasional blips online on the ps, but is great for me.

Draytek here - it never misses a beat on a 15Mbit connection.
But yes, pricey.

I swear by it, was a bit weak set at 54mbps but after setting for 108Mbps it's signal is great, plus very easy setup, just about does it itself. I have my PC in loft conversion, but get just as strong a signal in living room to laptop, passing through 2 floors. In fact at these prices i may just get another one in case this one throws the towel in. I've had it for about 4 yrs.'"
Thats the one I have just dumpt.
Great peace of kit, but the Netgear DGN1000 that I have just bought seems to run better. |

The vast majority of people on BT are getting far less than 6mb download speed. |

Karoo were the nominees. Indeed, correct me if I'm wrong but I think they actually won an award for best ISP recently. |

ANY router will work with Karoo, there is no way the broadband signal knows what type of box it is connectiong to, only the branded (Sky/Virgin etc.) one's sometimes don't work.
As has been said, go Netgear, pay what you feel comfrotable paying and follow the instructions, and make sure you secure the connection!'"
I've had a thompson router for over a year now and its been absolutely fine with no problems whatsoever,  everyone to their own i suppose.  |

Again it goes down to what you want from a router but the Thompson routers are pretty poor when compared to the competition. The reason Karoo give them with a contract is because they are the cheapest on the market that work for them.

First there was wisdom
Then there was knowledge
Now there is only information:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_17490.jpg |

I believe KC recommend Netgear, or at least they used to.
We have a Belkin which works fine, even with 3 of us online at the same time.

My Netgear has been excellent but I still have issues over the sub 1MBPS service supplied by Karoo. When BT take full control they might start to invest in KC's old infrastructure.

Reduced prices when KC has competition?
This must support the argument of KC taking advantage of it's local position as a monopoly?

Pretty similar to the new bundles they are offering at k-c.com to be honest. The Hull ones have larger bandwidth allowances but the phone packages are the same.

How did you change the settings?
Genuinely want to try this but being a Luddite these tasks don't come easy to me. |

You need to login to the router. |
