I purchased one of these baby's a few days ago and I must say i'm happy with it. It's not that hard to setup at all. Actually, its easy as pie, forget the instructions just plug the wires in and turn on your computer.

As long as ye'v got XP, you'll be sharing the internet in no time.

Anyway, meh, Just thought i'd post this on the forum to appraise the quality you get for the price, and its great for people who are thinking of sharing an internet connection with consoles etc.

Get one.

Ha! Excellent, it comes with its own management software aswell, built inside the router, meaning you can forward ports etc without any problems.

Well, I can't even remember all the problems I've had with Ebuyer. The only thing I use it for now is the customer opinions.

Coincedence or conspiracy?

People can always find something wrong with a supplier, none of them are perfect, i have had no problems at all with ebuyer and purchased a lot of equipment from them, ive also had to send bits back and had no problems with them being replaced, without sounding like im moaning i think we should not say how good or bad a company is to someone purchasing from them (unless asked) just because you have heard of or are someone who has had a problem with them.

I've heard mixed opinions about ebuyers customer service, but i've only ever used them twice now and had no problems with anything.

Still, I'd highly reccomend one of these routers to anyone whos just wanting to share their internet connection between 4 computers/consoles without breaking the bank. It does it's job, it shares the connection and its really really easy to setup. I just chucked away the instructions as soon as I got it, plugged it in and loaded up Gentoo Linux. Bang, i'm on the internet without even a hint of configuration.

Definatly worth the money, consider purchasing one.

I've never had any problems at all. Oops, tell a lie, I once had something arrive a day later than it was scheduled for. It arrived on the 24th of December and not the 23rd.

Well I had good customer service, I got my goods.

And yes, the router is made by Origo.

I think its excellent value for money compared to the £60-£70 needed to spend on an overly priced branded router.

Good stuff.
