Doubt it`s the cheapest, but the SAR130 seems good value for money at £49.95 - I`ve been tempted for a while now - +£10 for delivery though :( .

It`s an ADSL Modem/Router, but only one network port on this one, so you need a hub or switch if you want to share the Internet connection.
Apparently some very good support and forums available.

Anyone think they have found something better for the money?

I just bought this Origo thing from Ebuyer - cheap as muck, but has worked fine for the past week and was easy to setup, following the advice on here

The router has 4 ethernet ports and is here

... even cheaper than Dabs` offering :)

Oh well, i`ve took the plunge and ordered one, should be here this thursday. :D
will update with my opinion.

can`t be a bad price tho` as i was going to order a separate print server from
D-Link which would`ve set me back £50+

I hope not a I just bought one last week, it`s the Origo 8400 which is also sold by scan.co.uk. It works fine but the documentation is poor if you need to do anything clever.

Ste,

What kind of printer do you have? Not all printers will work through just any print server - they need to go through their own special (ie very expensive) ones.

Anyone got any top buys for a wireless ADSL modem/router and laptop cards?

Cheers
