Basically i need to buy a new router and modem so i was wondering if you had any suggestions. Preferably a modem and router in one piece of hardware. Just want something thats easy to set up, reliable and cheap :) not asking too much then.
cheers for any help

I use http://www.netgear.com/products/details/DG834.php it's easy to set up and administer and been on non stop for the past year with the only problem being the external power supply dying (but they are easy to replace). They also do a wireless version.

mm well mines mainly set up for my family for wireless networking, was using a netgear modem and an access point to go with it, but it was a big hassle to set up and it was constantly sodding up, would rather have a modem and router in one piece of hardware
