They start from £32.98+VAT at ebuyer (ref code is 48449) and go upwards
rapidly...

What do you want out of it specifically - that might change the price you
pay, ie. regular router, does tcp/ip and no fancy protocols, or VPN and
UPNP etc ?

Just got one of these (10 day wait for ebuyer to order it in, but it did say
that on the website so they didn't mess me about) So far I like it. It
allows internet sharing on 4 machines, print/file sharing and has USB as
well as 4 LAN ports. It is nice and small and comes with a patch lead, US
style modem lead and a USB lead.

Set up - Install the autoboot CD, choose your LAN card from the drop down
list (only shows your network cards) then put in your user name and password
for your ADSL account. Reboots automatically and is then always on. Wahay!
:-)

Well worth it in my (short owned) opinion. Got a Samsung 4500 laser printer
too and it is luverly! :-)

Cheers
