General Comments

For months now I've been struggling with my BT 105 Voyager ADSL modem using the Eciadsl Linux driver, but with the repeated syncronisation problems, disconnections and general unpredictability I decided it was time to invest in an Ethernet modem. Then I discovered the Netgear DG834G 54Mbps Wireless ADSL Modem Firewall Router on Amazon.

This is an awesome piece of all in one hardware, that's a real dream to configure through Firefox/IE (great idea). It's reliable, secure and fast. I only wish I'd invested in one sooner. It is great value for money too!

The only problem I had was with my wireless laptop card. This was easily solved extracting the Windows .inf file and compiling using ndiswrapper in Ubuntu Dapper Drake. Although this will not affect the 90% of Windows users out there who should have no problems...tech support what do you think?
