Wireless Router Questions

[DaveLiquid182]

My wireless router has died so i need to get a new one. I currently have a g router. Upon reading up about them i noticed that the g is a basic one so am probably looking at getting an n or n+. My only concerns are if my printer will work with an n or n+ as it says on the front 802.11g. Also how do i know if my laptop is n or n+ compatible?

Cheers

Wireless n routers are backwards compatible with *most* b/g devices.

I've got one of these brand new in sealed box if you're interested?

Is it cable or ADSL?

The box says it can do both, I got it for ADSL but then I got a wireless 877 free from work so no need for it.

The WNR2000 has a 100mbit ethernet WAN port. It's the same router Virgin Media give out to their 50mbit users. There's no ADSL modem built in, although it could be connected to a standalone ADSL modem.
If you want an ADSL modem built in you need to get the DGN2000 instead.

I had the DGN3300 (i think correct name) and had no end of problems. Got the Belkin N+ modem/router which has been much better. Doesn't like ps3 at the moment though. Had to do a 2 minute change to get xbox working but has been superb and very easy to setup throughout
