Briefly..
<br>
<br>
The Linksys kit you mention is pretty darn good - I've been considering
replacing my current setup (a router and a seperate wireless
base-station) with one and giving my kit to my sister.
<br>
<br>
Security - well that depends on how you set it up.

Ah, that means that this particular "one" is the linksys blue box you
mentioned the other week then Geoff?<br>

We've got a community wireless network set up (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.bristolwireless.net/">http://www.bristolwireless.net/</a>), We use the Linksys WRT54G access points as our backbone link. They've not failed us yet, so I'd say go with it (We've just upgraded the firmware to the linux one).</pre>

I seem to recall when you said about moving down to Bristol -
University wasn't it ???<br>

Well, baring in mind both Geoff and Matthews comments, that gives that
particular device a thumbs up. I'm not going to go leaping in straight
away, I'd like to look into the hardware etc a little more, certainly
checking out any offerings from Solwise, because this wired
modem/router I'm currently using has been solid as a rock, I'd be
saddened to see it go it's been that reliable as well as Solwise having
given me excellent support (phone) on the couple of occassions that
i've needed it.<br>
<br>
Plus, I could do worse than also checking out any suggestion from <a
href="http://www.adslguide.org.uk/">the adslguide</a> as that was
where I got the suggestion for the Solwise device in the first place -
they seem to have a good handle on this type of kit.<br>
<br>
Again, many thanks for the replies.<br>
<br>
regards<br>
