Once set up a good router for the price.

Shipping

The only word of warning after this point would be to perform a router firmware update immediately - the router i was shipped w...  Read More

    I have good background in business systems so am aware of the key terms and features needed from a router but have no technical networking experience to call on when choosing and installing a new router
