£250 for 12 months within the budget ?

You want to check out plusnet

http://www.plus.net/residential/broa..._premier.shtml - If you
are a gamer, p2p users or heavy internet user £21.99

http://www.plus.net/residential/broa...and_plus.shtml - This is the
same service as premier speed wise but at peak times they restrict access to
p2p networks and downloading from newsgroups, 2mb for £14.99

Both are uncapped, they would only contact you if your usage was taking the
piss every month, 150gb + and at peak times.

D-Link 504T or D-Link 604T if you want wireless, cheep and cheerful.
Choose from Draytek Vigor range if you want the best.
Avoid Netgear unless you like to update the firmware every few weeks.

I would second the PlusNet recommendation in previous post. Been with them
for over two years and can't fault them. If you sign up with them please use
my ID 'wester' as a referrer and save me few pence, thanks.
